Miami’s NYE celebration returns to Bayfront Park with live music, firework show

MIAMI – Bayfront Park is once again hosting their 2023 New Year’s Eve event with plans for a free outdoor concert with a fireworks display and it’s almost time to get the party started.

The event will take place at 301 Biscayne Blvd on Saturday from 6 p.m. to midnight.

Miguel Ferro, the Executive Director at Bayfront Park told Local 10 News that he is expecting more than 150,000 people to attend.

Performing will be Latin Grammy Award winners like Willy Chirino, along with countless other performers.

“Willy Chirino, Arturo Sandoval….I can’t stop naming them all,” said Ferro. “The most fun of it is these are local artists, these are Miami artists, and what a best way to celebrate the New Year with our very own people.”

An iconic part of Miami’s New Year’s Eve celebration will also be making a return this year.

The hoisting of the Big Orange at the InterContinental Miami hotel in Downtown Miami has been a big part of ringing in the New Year for Miamians for more than three decades.

• The Bayfront New Year’s Eve is free, however, please keep in mind that space is limited.

• Doors for General Admission open at 6 p.m.

• Parking is also limited due to the location

Event organizers suggest a ride-share service or public transportation. The Metromover station is located outside of the venue.

They also want to inform the public that no coolers are allowed at the event.
