First Night Spokane is a nonprofit 501(c)(3) organization that produces Spokane’s iconic New Year’s Eve arts festival. Known for its community-driven approach, the festival historically featured 150+ performances across 40+ venues with button-based admission. Since its inaugural event in 2001 drawing around 13,000 participants, the festival has seen peak years in the tens of thousands. In 2018, the downtown First Night Spokane party shifted and paused certain formats due to attendance and cost pressures. Today, First Night Spokane continues to adapt, offering diverse performances and a published schedule through official channels.
