Extraordinary evening of fun for all ages. The variety of things to do is astounding, and it's impossible to do everything.Ticketed events sell out fast, so make sure you reserve your seats to those early. But there's plenty do do by attending the non-ticketed events. Although there are plenty of alcohol-related events to do on New Year's, this is one of the few family events. I've been more than a dozen times and I absolutely love it!One suggestion is that you set reasonable goals, set your sights on just 2 or 3 choices and you will find things more manageable.Parking can be tight, so I try to go early for dinner, then stay for the festivities.

First Night Pittsburgh was a cool experience. I was only disappointed by the turn out for this event. To be fair it was cold this night. They did have a lot of attractions and events.

A lifelong Pittsburgher, it shouldn't have taken me this long to attend our NYE festivities in the Cultural District. My attendance was due in major part to a performance by Texture Contemporary Ballet at the August Wilson Center. All of the participating locations were welcoming and warm, as were the people on the street. Everyone was smiling and happy, the city was well lit and showing off the beautiful charm I know it to possess. This is an event I certainly plan on attending again!
