Don’t miss out on the parade and fireworks show starting at 5:30pm either! You can learn more about the day’s events and register to participate here. 

2. Welcome in the New Year at The Lodge

To welcome in the New Year in style, you’ll want to head to The Lodge at Whitefish Lake. This New Year’s Eve party is reminiscent of something you’d find in a much larger city. The event features diner (reserve ahead to secure your table), live music from 9pm-12am, plus a balloon drop and fireworks at midnight! Learn more on The Lodge at Whitefish Lake website.
