The free festivities begin at 8 pm, with the Plaza warmed by stationary heaters and cozy piñon bonfires scenting the night air.

The Zia will glow against a backdrop of sparkling fireworks launched from Santa Fe's most historic hotel, La Fonda on the Plaza.

The sky will be alight with a blaze of colors as we welcome the New Year to Santa Fe, America's oldest capital city, with beloved age-old songs, Auld Lang Syne and Las Mañanitas, sung in a spirit of unity to say

¡Bienvenidos! to 2023ǃ
