Free New Year’s Eve Events in Brooklyn

There are a lot of great parties in Bay Ridge for New Year’s Eve. (See here) I received this question:

Bay Ridge doesn’t have any free or low cost celebrations for families. Next year, a block on 3rd Avenue should do this.
1) There is a free fireworks show at the Williamsburg Bridge in Brooklyn between 8:00 – 9:00 pm.

A company named Hatch, which makes smart alarm clocks, is having fireworks and a drone show on the Brooklyn Waterfront so people don’t have to wait to midnight to celebrate and can get a good night’s sleep! (Info here)

I haven’t seen many places mention these fireworks, but it is listed on the NYC website for fireworks on New Year’s Eve. Info here

2) Go to the 68th Pier or Shore Bike Path! You won’t see the fireworks from Manhattan, but you can see the fireworks from Staten Island and hang out with other Brooklynites.
3) Grand Army Plaza on Flatbush Avenue will have a free New Year’s Eve Event with fireworks and live music from 10:00 – 12:30 pm. (Info here)
4) Walk over the Brooklyn Bridge and see the fireworks. The bridge is very busy on New Years Eve. (Info)
5) Stay home and have a party with your people! My parents used to invite their friends and neighbors every year to our home.
