From New Year's Day through New Year's Eve, there's always something happening in Silver City's exciting arts and entertainment district, with a mix of family-friendly and grown-up entertainment and activities.
Great music abounds, highlighted by our Silver City Blues Fest and Pickamania, but great live music is usually available downtown and in many of our community theaters, bars and restaurants. Live theater is a favorite, too, as are movies and just about any excuse to hold a parade downtown!
