Tonight is the night! 🎉 Join us downtown for the Last Nite celebration and help us ring in the New Year together. This is a Social District event, so grab a drink in a Social District cup and enjoy the festivities—please be mindful of Social District boundaries and where drinks are and are not allowed. There will be a cash bar at The Eagle during the Three Horse Rodeo performance, and everyone is welcome downtown for the drone show, beginning at approximately 11:50 PM. Block 59 will have the sound for the show and offers the best viewing area.

Please plan ahead for street closures. Most downtown streets will close at 4 PM due to the horse and carriage traveling around the square and will reopen at 9:45 PM. MILL STREET WILL BE CLOSED FROM GROVE STREET TO WATER STREET FROM 11:30 PM UNTIL THE CONCLUSION OF THE DRONE SHOW FOR REQUIRED SAFETY MEASURES. THIS INCLUDES THE BRIDGE—PLEASE PLAN YOUR DRIVE ACCORDINGLY.

Buttons will be available for purchase tonight at the following locations: Julie Moore/ Vision Homes Group, REMAX Rising Office, the Methodist Church during The Riker Maneuver Band , Da202 GuestHaus - Alive Again during the magician, and The Eagle during 3 Horse Rodeo . To help with parking, watch for signs marked “Last Nite Parking Here.” Come out, plan ahead, and celebrate safely with us—we can’t wait to see you! 🎆
