|
First Night is a community celebration of the New Year through the arts.
It is an alcohol-free, public festival with both local and regional talent.
There are events and fun filled entertainment for all ages. Best of all, it is accessible and affordable for everyone.
Check the First Night Bradford web site for complete details and this year’s schedule.
There will be events at locations all over Bradford the entire evening. There is so much going on, it’s difficult to take in everything. Fortunately, for $5.00 you can get a First Night Bradford button that gives you admission to everything. This helps defray the cost of the celebration including several professional entertainers. The celebration culminates at midnight on the Town Square with the 10th annual ball-drop and fireworks grande finale.
Here are some of this year’s featured entertainers:
Scanlan Irish Dance
If you enjoyed Riverdance, don’t miss the Scanlan Family Stepdancers. Katelyn and Andrew dance reels, jigs, and hornpipes set to the sound of traditional Irish folk tunes.
Champagne Sunday
Sensitive enough for folk crowds, but loud enough for rockers, Champagne Sunday has the rare ability to transcend genres while maintaining their own solid identity. Heartfelt harmonies along with a never-ending supply of stage craziness make this up-and-coming band’s shows a hit with all ages, featuring Bradford native Jared Fredeen
Local Band, Dank
