"First Night is wonderful tradition in Danbury. I and my husband make big batches of hot apple cider, which is provided by the Danbury Parking Authority, every year for revelers to share as they gather to welcome in the New Year. We love the energy of the crowd and wouldn't miss it for the world! " - Debbie Pacific, Danbury CT
