Three... Two... One... It's almost 2021!
Residents are gearing up for the new year and looking for local celebrations.
On Monday, Dallas County Judge Clay Jenkins urged people to stay safe on New Year's Eve to help slow the spread of COVID-19, so if you plan on attending a local celebration, be sure to follow CDC guidelines for safety.
Here are three local New Year's Eve events:
Reunion Tower Fireworks
This fireworks show will take place from the ball atop the Reunion Tower. Only registered guests will be allowed inside of the hotel and streets around the hotel will be closed to the public. The fireworks can be seen from other vantage points in the city as well as on TV. The show will stream in the hour-long Lone Star NYE special on KXAS-TV beginning at 11:30 p.m.
Apres 2020 NYE
Virgin Hotels Dallas will host a glitzy party. The fourth floor will transform into a sparkly winter ski lodge pop-up. There will be food, cocktails, and music. There is also a great view of the Reunion Tower fireworks. Entry is anywhere from $75-$200. Tickets can be purchased here.
New Year's Eve Featuring Straight Tequila Night
Country tribute band Straight Tequila Night will bring New Year's Eve fun to Lava Cantina in Dallas. There will be a limited capacity, and only VIP seats are available. Tickets can be purchased here and start at $100.
