Ring in the New Year with style!

Imagine a glittery, glitzy ball covered in mirrors suspended 20 feet off the ground. A plaza packed with excited kids and their grownups, all surrounding massive sheets of bubble wrap. The countdown . . . 10 – 9 – 8 – 7 – 6 – 5 – 4 – 3 – 2 – 1! Happy New Year! The ball drops and everyone runs and jumps all over the bubble wrap showered by rainbows of confetti.

This is Noon Year’s Eve at the Children’s Museum of Denver! With six ball drops every hour 10 a.m. – 3 p.m., exciting theater performances, art projects and who knows what else, families can ring in the New Year just like Times Square!

We've added an extra ball drop this year again!
