Sacramento New Years Eve 2024

Sky Spectacular fireworks, top hotels, bars & restaurants for new years eve 2023-2024 in Sacramento

If you happen to be thinking of spending the New Year in Sacramento, then you are in luck. California's capital is a culturally vibrant city that has much to offer in the way of galleries, theaters and museums and is perfectly placed for a trip to Napa Valley for some wine tasting.

With the Imaginarium Light Festival returning to illuminate Cal Expo with its "Holiday Lights, Fairytale Delights", you can take a walk through over 5 million lights that will enchant the whole family. There's also a circus show, live entertainment, ice skating and carnival rides.

There has been, in the past, a free celebration called Sky Spectacular, which was an evening of entertainment for all of the family, leading up to a spectacular fireworks display, held at 9pm rather than the more traditonal midnight, but as yet, it has not returned, but do check locally in case this changes.

Across Sacramento there are normally a number of great NYE parties to choose from, with the city's many top bars, clubs, restaurants and hotels hosting some top events to welcome 2024 in style!
