Charlotte Gets Ready to Ring in the New Year at Truist Field
Charlotte is all set for a spectacular celebration as the city’s official New Year’s Eve event, CLT NYE, makes a big move to Truist Field for the very first time this December 31, 2024. If you’re looking for a festive way to welcome 2025, this is where you’ll want to be!
Event Details
The excitement kicks off at 10:00 p.m. and runs until midnight when you’ll witness a breathtaking fireworks display to ring in the New Year. What’s even better? The event will be part of the Light the Knights festival, bringing extra sparkle and celebrations to the ballpark.
Now, if you’re wondering about tickets, they’ve made it super affordable. General admission is just $10, or you can splurge a bit for a $25 ticket that gives you access to fun activities like ice skating and tubing after 10 p.m. Talk about a snowball of fun!
Safety First!
After last year’s unfortunate incident at Romare Bearden Park, where a shooting wounded five people, organizers have taken safety seriously. While they haven’t confirmed that the move to Truist Field directly stemmed from those events, they’ve stated that enhanced security measures will be in place to ensure a safe experience for everyone attending.
With an expected turnout of around 3,000 to 4,000 attendees, it’s shaping up to be quite the party. And don’t worry if you can’t make it inside—there will still be a fantastic view of the fireworks from several spots around uptown, including Romare Bearden Park, so everyone can join in the celebration.
More Fun Awaits!
As part of the festivities, attendees aged 21 and over will receive a complimentary glass of champagne or apple cider with their admission. It’s a little extra joy to make your toast to the New Year even more special!
But that’s not all! The Light the Knights winter festival will offer various festive activities to keep the holiday spirit alive and kick the year off in style. From dazzling light displays to cozy winter vibes, it’s a perfect way to gather with family and friends.
A New Tradition in the Making
The Charlotte Knights, who own Truist Field, are looking to establish CLT NYE as an annual tradition. So, if this event goes off without a hitch, you might be looking forward to this happening every New Year’s Eve in the future!
