About the Concert

The Dayton Performing Arts Alliance (DPAA) New Year’s Eve celebration will be a feast for the senses, filled with traditions and festivities that patrons have come to love and anticipate. The performance itself will feature all three facets of the DPAA—exquisite Dayton Ballet dancers, sensational Dayton Opera singers, and the talented musicians of the Dayton Philharmonic Orchestra. A complimentary flute of champagne at intermission and a colorful climactic balloon drop add to the excitement, making this evening in the Mead Theatre the essential place to be on New Year’s Eve in Dayton.
