Description

Step right up, young adventurers, to the Children's Museum of Acadiana's 27th Annual New Year's Noon Carnival and Countdown – where the magic of a new year unfolds in a world designed just for KIDS! 

Imagine a place where time bends and the strike of midnight arrives early, with a burst of confetti that turns the sky into a kaleidoscope of colors! New Yea'rs Noon at the CMA is a spectacle crafted for the youngest among us, and it's the place to be as we bid farewell to the old year and welcome the new.

What's on the lineup, you ask? Prepare to be mesmerized by the rhythmic beats of the New Natives Brass Band, the infectious tunes of the TMM Project, and a dance party hosted by the one and only Legend the DJ. And keep your eyes peeled for the Amazing Bacon Stilt Walker, a walking marvel that'll have you giggling with every step!

But that's not all – become a master of old-fashioned carnival games, claim victory, and collect the most fabulous prizes! Plus, delve into the wonders of our 12+ exhibit spaces, where learning is an adventure, fun knows no bounds, and so much more.

Worried about looking the part for the grand countdown? Fear not! Your ticket grants you entry to everything and comes with a New Year's hat and a noisemaker to add flair to the celebration.

And when hunger strikes! Delicious delights await you from Amis Grocery, Cotton Candies, and The Beignet Box of Acadiana, available for a separate cost. So, mark December 31, 2023, from 10 am - 2:00 pm on your calendars, secure your tickets, and get ready for the ultimate New Year's bash at the Children's Museum of Acadiana – where memories take center stage!
