About this event
The Crescent City Countdown schedule places the New Orleans Eve Concert at a new location, Woldenberg Park, offering more space and a riverfront view of the fireworks, with live performances leading up to midnight. At midnight the fleur de lis descends from the top of the Jax Condominiums and the NOLA New Year's Eve fireworks display, produced by the Crescent City Countdown Club in partnership with the New Orleans Tourism and Cultural Foundation, lights up the Mississippi Riverfront. The fireworks can be seen from the East and West Banks of the Mississippi River.
