Countdown to Noon New Years Eve Celebration in Niantic
December 31, 2022 @ 11:00 am - 2:00 pm
Ring in the New Year a little early with a 250+ balloon drop at noon! Join the Niantic Museum and East Lyme Parks & Recreation for southeastern Connecticut’s premier New Year’s event for children and families!
Start 2023 off with a one-of-a-kind experience! Wildlife Encounters of New Hampshire is coming to Countdown to Noon!
Children will squeal with excitement as they meet animals such as a serval cat, porcupine, and arctic fox, along with interactive animals such as a mini pig, pygmy goat, and giant rabbit.
In addition to the animal show at 10:30am & 1pm, fellow community organizations come with some hands-on crafts and activities for all ages. Plus special guest appearances from Captain America & Black Panther!
The Rolling Tomato will be on hand with pizza to purchase. And you can savor the event for years to come with a photo from our photo booth.
