New Year’s Eve 2026: Spectacular Fireworks and Drones Set for Dallas
UPDATE: Dallas is gearing up for an unforgettable New Year’s Eve celebration as Reunion Tower prepares to welcome 2026 with a dazzling display of fireworks, drones, and vibrant lights! Scheduled for 11:59 p.m. on December 31, 2025, the event promises to be a spectacular showcase under the theme “The Most Colorful Year Yet.”
This year marks the 10th annual NYE celebration at Reunion Tower, and it’s set to be the most ambitious yet. Attendees can expect over 5,000 pyrotechnic effects launched from the iconic tower, accompanied by a breathtaking 259-LED light show and an impressive 500 drones soaring through the sky.

Dusti Groskreutz, President of Reunion Tower, expressed excitement for the upcoming celebration, stating, “Every element, from the colors to the music, has been designed to surprise and delight viewers. Our goal is to create an experience that will stay with everyone long after the last firework fades.” This year’s event is not just a show; it’s a heartfelt gift from Hunt Realty Investments to the city, aiming to capture the essence and energy of Dallas.
