Ring in the New Year in the spot where the New World began at this fun and family-friendly celebration that takes place in the heart of Downtown Manteo. The New Year in The New World is a perfect destination for a family-oriented New Year’s Eve that visitors won’t soon forget, and it features a wealth of activities, attractions, and other fun to start 2020 off with a bang.

The event is sponsored and hosted by area businesses and attractions throughout Manteo and beyond, and as a result, visitors should expect a diverse array of things to do and see throughout the downtown streets. The street fair will be big and boisterous, with area vendors, live music, family-friendly games and activities, exhibits, and a host of other ways for folks to explore and discover this history-rich corner of the Outer Banks. Local food vendors will also be on-hand, and area restaurants and bars will stay open late for people who want to grab a bite or a drink. When midnight rolls around, get ready for a ball drop, as well as a huge fireworks display over the Manteo waterfront. Fun for all ages, New Year in The New World is shaping up to be a truly unforgettable time.
