Ring in the New Year in Madison Wisconsin at the 20th Annual US Bank Eve

 

A family-oriented New Year's Eve celebration, the 20th  US Bank Eve  has activities and entertainment for everyone in many locations throughout the city of Madison and in Sun Prairie and Middleton this year too.  This is the wany many Madisonians chose to celebrate the New Year and it ends early enough so that you can still watch the ball drop in Times Square after you tuck exhausted little ones in  bed.

Fireworks? You bet!  Last year, fireworks were not included and that did not meet with approval of the party goers.  So they are back this year as usual in previous New Year's eve celebrations with US Bnk..

 

U.S. Bank Eve's fireworks finale will take place over Lake Monona at 10:05.The Lake Monona bike path between Monona Terrace and the Lake Shore promises to be the best viewing spot.
