North Country New Year Festival
The final full 2025 schedule and registration are TBD.
New Years Eve in Saranac Lake is decidedly entertaining and full of excitement for the whole family. Join us for live music and activities throughout the village.
Building on the success of the 2023 and 2024 celebrations—which showcased thrilling new performers alongside beloved returning acts—2025 promises to be the biggest and best North Country New Year yet. Enthusiastic audiences filled venues across the village last year, creating memories to last a lifetime.
