The family friendly New Year's Festival event, which will feature a lighting display, is taking place at The Custom House. Free tickets for the event will be available from Ticketmaster this Thursday, 22nd November at 12noon.

Families and friends of all ages can ring in the New Year together with entertainment starting at 6pm, and the earlier countdown spectacle beginning at 7pm. The display is set to have laser lights and aqua beams dancing through the sky in rhythm with the music.

Now in its seventh year, New Year's Festival Dublin announced three New Year’s Eve events to ring in 2019 in style. The Custom House, Dublin’s iconic landmark, will be the centre for NYF Dublin’s three countdown events; Liffey Lights Midnight Moment - Matinee; the 3Countdown Concert; and the Liffey Lights Midnight Moment.
