Tuesday, December 31, 2024 Happy New Year! You’re invited to attend First Night—Northampton’s most beloved signature event. Since 1985, First Night Northampton has filled Paradise City with a 12-hour, family-friendly festival of the arts, culminating in a traditional ball-raising from the roof of the Hotel Northampton. Gather with friends, neighbors, and visitors at over 20 terrific downtown venues for an astounding array of entertainment presented by hundreds of talented performers.
For 25 years, Mad Science has been bringing its unique brand of “edu-tainment” to children of Western New England through spectacular stage shows, after-school programs, in-school workshops, parties, activity booths and summer programs. Now you can ring in the New Year with a spectacular Mad Science show. Come see a one-of-a-kind exploration of the science of the season and more, featuring dazzling demonstrations and interactive fun. Kids of all ages will be entertained by amazing scientific antics...but watch out - if they are not VERY CAREFUL - they just might learn something!
