If you were lucky enough to hold a ticket to the Minnesota Orchestra's New Year's concerts last season, you know there is no better place to ring in the New Year than at Orchestra Hall!
Bridge the old and new years with Beethoven's “bookend” symphonies, the graceful First and his towering Ninth. Join us afterwards in the lobby as we toast the New Year with more entertainment, a countdown, and of course champagne—or if you have other plans, catch a reprise of the performance on New Year's Day at our 2pm matinee concert.
After-party from 10:30pm to 1:00am
Festivities include:
- Sweet treats
- Live entertainment in the Orchestra Hall Grand Foyer and Atrium
- Midnight Countdown and more!
We are deeply grateful to Dr. Glen D. and Marilyn C. Nelson for their significant support of the Beethoven Marathon.
