Boston New Year Grand Musical Ball

BOSTON NEW YEAR GRAND MUSICAL BALL

A Viennese tradition with international celebration for New Year Holidays
The Boston New Year Grand Musical Ball, presented by WeStar Music in collaboration with the Boston International Symphony Orchestra, is a signature event unlike any other in New England — an elegant and grand celebration inspired by the tradition of the Vienna Opera Ball and reimagined with an international flair.
Experience beloved Strauss waltzes alongside musical masterpieces from around the world, performed by the professional Boston International Symphony Orchestra and internationally acclaimed guest artists. From classical and opera to Broadway and popular favorites, the evening celebrates the universal language of music while introducing audiences to extraordinary works and cultures from across the globe.
More than a concert, the Boston New Year Grand Musical Ball is an unforgettable experience of music, dancing, champagne, and glamour — a spectacular evening where audiences don’t simply watch the celebration; they become part of it, by waltzing the night away to a live symphony orchestra.
