Highlight 2025

For Highlight 2025, we’re welcoming revelers from far and wide to celebrate New Year’s Eve in Burlington’s beautiful downtown and Waterfront. Vermont artists, food vendors, musicians, and everyone in between come together to create a one-of-a-kind event that HIGHLIGHTS the best of Vermont.

There’s no better way to kick off 2026 than by counting down the experiences and ideas that make our community a hub of incredible creativity! Tickets go on sale November 1, so check back for more details as we start rolling out this year’s brilliant lineup.
