Red Stick Revelry
Will you be there when the ball drops?
Galvez Plaza, Town Square 222 North Boulevard, Baton Rouge, Louisiana 70801
Join the crowd downtown on North Boulevard for one last splurge before your resolutions kick in. As is the rule in physics, what comes down, must first go up ... or something like that. Head down early to sing "Auld Lang Syne" and watch as they hoist the Red Stick sixty feet into the air above Town Square from 11 am–1 pm. Evening festivities begin at 8 pm, with DJ Marquis and The Molly Ringwalds providing live musical entertainment. At midnight, once the Red Stick hits its mark, revelers can enjoy fireworks over the river. Free. More info at redstickrevelry.com.
