RING IN 2024 AS A FAMILY AT MOODY GARDENS' NEW YEAR’S PALOOZA

Galveston, Texas (October 1, 2023) - Foosball, air hockey, bounce houses, and an eco-friendly Beach Ball Drop are just a few of the activities to help ring in 2024. Held annually, New Year’s Palooza is a fun-filled family celebration appropriate for all ages at Moody Gardens Hotel, December 31 – January 1.

The celebration begins with an exciting journey through the iconic Moody Gardens pyramids, followed by a magnificent dinner and performance of A Christmas Wish: Holiday Spectacular. After, guests are invited to discover the stunning Festival of Lights trail with over two million lights illuminating the way. Guests can then enjoy an evening full of games, music, and activities located within the Moody Gardens Convention Center.

As the evening unfolds, families can savor hot chocolate and cookies while watching the enchanting fireworks display light up the night sky. The New Year's Countdown, designed especially for children, leads up to a Beach Ball Drop, marking the arrival of 2024 with hundreds of beach balls descending from the ceiling.

The NYE Silver Celebration Party allows adults to slip away from the young ones, while still having them under the same roof, while reveling in an exclusive adult celebration in the ballroom, raising glasses in a champagne toast, and dancing into the night to the tunes of the Mambo Jazz Kings.

Start 2024 with a delectable breakfast buffet on New Year's Day, complete with a Mimosa and Bloody Mary bar for adults. To keep the festive vibe going, the hotel will continue to have a variety of games and activities families can do together to celebrate the new year.
