New Year’s Eve Downtown
The following description was submitted by the event organizer.
For this New Year’s Eve, the sky is literally the limit as we gather to ring in 2025 at Pioneer Courthouse Square. With live drone shows and a large-scale dance party, The Square will be THE spot to ring in the New Year.
There will be two drone displays at The Square: a family-friendly drone show at 9:00 p.m. and a final countdown drone show to usher in the New Year at Midnight. This year’s drone shows will be produced by Sky Elements, a world-renowned drone light show company that will bring the art of customized aerial performance with more than 200 drones to the heart of downtown.
Portland’s own Video Dance Attack will provide a video-based dance night featuring the hottest music and videos from the 80s and beyond. Music videos are projected onto multiple large screens to provide a quality sound and light show in our City’s Living Room. This event is FREE to the public, and food and beverages (alcoholic and non-alcoholic) will be available for purchase throughout the event.
