Crescent City Countdown: NOLA NYE Fleur de Lis Drop
Welcome 2024 with the traditional NOLA New Year’s Eve midnight fireworks display, the backdrop for all of the exciting New Year’s festivities in the great city of New Orleans!
The spectacular fireworks display along the historic New Orleans Riverfront in downtown New Orleans can be seen from the East and West Banks of the Mississippi River from the Hilton New Orleans Riverside to Crescent Park at the French Market. At the stroke of midnight, when the fleur de lis drops, an intense barrage of colors – including team colors of the Allstate Sugar Bowl contenders, University of Washington Huskies and University of Texas Longhorns – will light up the night sky. The extraordinary display will feature 10-inch shells that travel 1,000 feet high, then break out across a 1,000-foot span over the Mighty Mississippi. The fireworks show will be streamed live on WWL.com and WWL Radio Facebook.
Produced by the Crescent City Countdown Club in partnership with the Mayor’s Office of Cultural Economy and the New Orleans Tourism & Cultural Fund, this internationally acclaimed tradition is a community project made possible by New Orleans & Company, with Allstate Sugar Bowl, The Berger & Tiller Families, French Quarter Festivals, Inc., J & M Displays, WWL 870AM/105.3FM, WWL.com, Magic 101.9, and 17 dedicated community sponsors.
The spectacular fireworks display is choreographed to music which adds so much energy to the fireworks show, especially for Sugar Bowl visitors as it includes the college team fight songs. Be sure to click through to download the music!
