Niagara Falls cancels in-person New Year's Eve event for second year in a row

Niagara Falls has announced that their annual outdoor New Year’s Eve event will be cancelled this year.

In a joint statement, the City of Niagara Falls and Niagara Parks Commission said that the usual in-person concert would not take place because of COVID-19. The event was also cancelled in 2020.
