What day does New Year's Eve land on?
NYE is on Saturday, December 31, 2022.
When are the New Year's Eve fireworks?
Launched from barges across from the Ferry Building, the dark skies of the San Francisco Bay will come alive for 15-minutes this New Year’s Eve with a spectacular pyrotechnics show synched to music. Pick a spot south of the Ferry Building along the Embarcadero between Mission and Folsom streets where speakers will be set up to play music and arrive early. You’ll also get a great show from Yerba Buena or Treasure Islands or Telegraph Hill, though the event’s music will be out of range.
Fireworks will go off December 31 at 11:59pm
