New Year’s Eve is here, Worcester! How will you be ringing in 2022?

Bring 2021 to a close with a celebration! ThisWeekinWorcester.com has your list of five fantastic ways to welcome the new year! 

Say goodbye to 2021 with your favorite people. Bring your family, friends, or significant others to restaurants and venues across the city to make your first memory for 2022. 

 

Dance the night – and the rest of the year – away! 

Join the Hayloft Steppers Barn at 232 Podunk Road in Sturbridge for a new way to welcome the new year.

From 7:30 PM to 8:30 PM, contribute to — and enjoy —  a potluck dinner. The dancing starts at 9 p.m. and goes all night!

Entry for adults is $10 and entry for youth is $5. 

 

Make a lasting memory with your family!

Share laughter and fun with your little ones on Friday. The EcoTarium in Worcester will be holding a “Noon Year’s Eve” party the whole family will enjoy.

The event will take place from 10 AM to 3 PM with two ball drops; one at noon and the second one at 2 PM! Spend the rest of the day making a time capsule to remember 2021, commit to a New Year’s Resolution by adding to their resolution wall, and participate in the fire and ice education programs.

Admission to the EcoTarium is $19 for adults and $14 for children over 2. 

 

Put on your blue suede shoes and boogie along to the iconic hits from the King of rock n’ roll! 

Head over to The Simple Man Saloon and Grill in Clinton to say goodbye to 2021 in style.

From 9 PM to 12 AM, New England’s premier Elvis Presley tribute, the Fellowship of the King, will be performing! Listen and dance along with all of the King’s top songs from 1968-1977.
