| 19th Annual Pontiac First Night Paint the Town! Monday, December 31, 2007 6pm - Midnight Downtown Pontiac |
This year marks the 19th year of the
First Night Celebration in Downtown
Pontiac! We are 1 of only 4
communities in all of Illinois that
hold this family-friendly,
non-alcohol New Year's Eve
celebration. Moreover, Pontiac
provides the 2nd oldest First Night
in Illinois while being the smallest
community to host such a
celebration!
We are very excited to share that 14
new acts of entertainment will be
showcased at 10 different locations
in Downtown Pontiac! The festivities
will begin at 6pm and will continue
until midnight. Then, to ring in the
new year in fashion, a fireworks
display will begin promptly at
midnight - countdown included!

stop by the Livingston County War
Museum or Route 66 Hall of Fame
