Let’s say goodbye to 2020, and hello to 2021! We’re so excited for the New Year, and we look forward to all the good things to come. This year’s NYE celebrations are slightly different, with more focus on celebrations at home and outdoors! We can’t wait to ring in the new year tomorrow. Read on for a quick list of New Years' celebration ideas in Chicago.
New Year’s Eve 5k
The New Year’s Eve 5k usually happens along the waterfront nearby, however, this year you can take place in this virtual race from the comfort of your home, or running your favorite path outside! This race will benefit Direct Relief, an organization dedicated to providing protective gear for as many healthcare workers as they can. Run your way this year!

Julian’s 2020 NYE House Party at the Drive-in
Party in your car! Do something different this year with a cozy tailgate. Catch the midnight fireworks from your car at the drive-in at SeatGeek Stadium in Bridgeview. There will be local DJs and performers entertaining throughout the night, and concessions with food and drinks available.
Party at Home!
Celebrate from the comfort of your luxury apartments at Aqua at Lakeshore East. Look back on the year’s events with the Netflix mockumentary, Death to 2020. Put on your favorite outfit and have a dance party in the living room, Sleeping Village and Whistler have New Year’s Eve party mixes put together by their favorite DJs. You can stream it here.
Whether you’re staying in or going out, let's ring in the new year with hope and positivity! 2021 is a chance for a fresh start, so let’s make it our best year yet. Tag us in your NYE photos for a shoutout, and come back next week for more Chicago living.
