First Night 2019: Let's Celebrate!

For 23 years, First Night Saratoga has been the go-to event for ringing in the new year. Presented by Saratoga Arts, First Night is an all ages New Years Eve celebration of the arts. There is something for everyone at First Night Saratoga.

From 6pm - 12am, Saratoga Arts fills downtown Saratoga Springs with talented artists from across the spectrum of arts: magic, dance, music, visual arts, film, theater and more! Adults and children enjoy a variety of activities and performances, and for those who want to celebrate early, there is the First Night Saratoga 5K Run and the Lets Celebrate Parade for Kids!

This year, weve worked with dozens of venues and nearly 1,000 volunteers and performers to bring you the biggest First Night the region has ever seen! The evening will start with 1,500 people running in the 21st anniversary of our First Night 5K Race and will end with an amazing fireworks display in Congress Park at midnight.
