Downtown Arts District's hit New Year’s Eve Party, Midnight On Magnolia returns on December 31

Following a sell-ot inaugural event, the hottest New Year's Eve Party in downtown Orlando is back, with tickets available now.

The Downtown Arts District is excited to announce the return of the hit New Year’s Eve celebration, “Midnight on Magnolia,” on Wednesday, December 31, 2025 at CityArts in Orlando from 9pm to 1am.  Presented by Valley Bank, this fun and fresh event—selling out in in its inaugural year—offers an elevated, artistic atmosphere, perfect for young professionals and the young at heart looking for a unique way to ring in the New Year in Orlando.

With the Magnolia flower as its centerpiece, Midnight on Magnolia offers a refreshing alternative to the typical New Year’s Eve bar and club scene in Downtown Orlando.  The glittering event showcases the vibrant culture and history of the Downtown Arts District. Attendees aged 21 and up will enjoy a welcoming, cosmopolitan environment—stylish yet comfortable, without being overly formal.

The evening’s festivities will include live art experiences and entertainment, DJ John Willoughby and co-DJs performing in the first - and second-floor main galleries, live music by the Blacklist Babes in the gated, open-air FORDify the Arts Courtyard, party favors, confetti cannons, stilt walkers, a champagne toast at midnight, cocktails, gourmet lite bites by Johnny's Fillin' Station, and more.

General Admission and VIP tickets — featuring open bar — are now available at MidnightOnMagnolia.EventBrite.com.  A special 35% offer will be available from Black Friday through Cyber Monday and Travel Tuesday, valid for both GA and VIP tickets.
