About New Year's Eve Piazza Bra
New Year's Eve in Verona's Living Room
New Year's Eve in Piazza Bra is the symbolic end-of-year celebration of the city: the grand square at the foot of the Arena, the famous Veronese 'liston' (promenade), transforms into an open-air stage where thousands of people await midnight together. Live concert, guests, countdown, and DJ sets mark a night of celebration in the heart of Verona.
Music and Entertainment Until Dawn
The program, organized by the Municipality of Verona, features a major evening concert with guests from the Italian music scene, followed by the midnight countdown and a DJ set that extends the festivities until the early hours. The square, with the Arena's scenic backdrop, offers a unique atmosphere.
A Celebration for the Entire City
Free and open to all, New Year's Eve in Piazza Bra is one of Verona's most popular events, located in the province of Verona (Veneto Region). To ensure the safety of the event, the Municipality typically imposes specific prohibitions (glass bottles and cans) in the hours leading up to the celebration.
