HARTFORD - Looking for a family fun activity on New Year's Eve? Check out the annual First Night Hartford celebration.
This is the event's 31st year, but there are new activities every year.
Events start at 2 p.m. on Tuesday, and include activities like ice skating and crafts and of course the first of two fireworks shows at 6pm.
Admission into the festivities is the purchase of a button.
The event's coordinator, Jeff Devereux, visited the FOX61 Morning News on Sunday, and told our Ashley Afonso that this year's event features a special partnership.
"We also have a wonderful partnership with the Wolf Pack," he said. "If you get your ticket to the Wolf Pack you also get a button for First Night. So you can have a wonderful winter day here in Hartford on Tuesday night."
This year, First Night will kick off a day early, with a celebration of one of Hartford's great jazz musicians. "The Life and Times of Nat Reeves" will be celebrated with a special concert at the Wadsworth Antheneum Museum of Art on Monday night.
