Orlando New Year’s Eve Guide 2025 for Families: Kid-Friendly Events, Fireworks & More
New Year's Eve is almost here and that means 2026, and Orlando New Year's Eve fireworks, are just around the corner! While several Orlando New Year's Eve events are geared toward adults, there are many family-friendly parties to celebrate with kids. Many of these NYE activities for kids count down at an earlier hour, so you can still follow normal bedtime routines. If you have tweens and teens that can make it to midnight, some Orlando evening events include fireworks at the turn of the year. Read on for all the details of what's happening for Orlando New Year's Eve!
And that's not all! Orlando Christmas Light Displays are happening through the new year; we've rounded up Top Things to Do Between Christmas and New Year's with Kids to get your kids through the rest of holiday break; and stay cool in Florida at Snowcat Ridge Snow Park. Be sure to also bookmark our Orlando activity calendar and keep checking for new events.
What Are the Best Things to Do with Kids on New Year’s Eve in Orlando?
There are great things to do with kids on New Year's Eve that don't necessarily involve midnight fireworks. In fact, some New Year's Eve countdown start at 12pm, instead of 12am for the little ones. If late-night parties aren't your family's thing, try some of these awesome New Year's Eve activities in Orlando, like outdoor fun at Boxi Park, the zoo, and more!
