New Year's Eve at Bricktown

I remember when Bricktown was nothing more than a junkyard filled with rusted out cars and dilapidated buildings. Until the late 80's, it was simply the long-forgotten red-headed-stepchild of downtown commerce. It has become the crown jewel of the city! Within only minutes from Edmond, you're not far from a romantic walk along the canal, a fabulous dining experience or a happenin' party club!
Bricktown was the place to be for New Year's Eve festivities. If you were there, you celebrated with 65,000 of your closest friends! There were 14 different venues featuring all brands of music from blues rock to jazz. Performers included Oklahoma favorites Edgar Cruz, Pinkie & the Snakeshakers and Edmond Jazz Orchestra. The family friendly atmosphere has made Bricktown a great place to ring in the new year since 1987. A fantastic fireworks display illuminated the skies and capped off the evening at the final countdown.
