Description
Good morning, this is your Burlington Local Frequency for Thursday, January 1.
Happy New Year, Burlington! What a way to kick off 2026 after last night's electric Highlight New Year's Eve bash at Waterfront Park, where thousands gathered for the countdown, live music, and that dazzling fireworks show lighting up Lake Champlain—pure magic that had everyone feeling connected and ready for fresh starts.[4][9] If you're still buzzing from the festivities, head over to Foam Brewers on the waterfront today for their ongoing Tai Chi and Qigong Melange session at 10 a.m., a gentle way to ease into the year with mindful movement and community vibes, perfect for shaking off any holiday haze.[8]
Music lovers, your calendars are packed with free shows at Foam Brewers to keep the party going. Tonight, catch the Dale and Darcy Band at 1 p.m. blending Americana, Celtic, and bluegrass roots for an afternoon of foot-stomping fun.[2] Tomorrow, Friday the 2nd, Rose Asteroid drops their alternafunk space rock at 8 p.m., high-energy grooves thatll get you dancing without a cover charge.[2] Saturday brings Left Eye Jump's blues set at 7 p.m., soulful riffs to unwind with friends.[2] And mark your calendars for indie darlings Madaila on January 24th, their psych-pop beats promising infectious energy straight from our local scene.[2]
Beyond the beats, today's got that fresh-start feel with the SEABA Center's New Year's Eve Spectacular winding down from last night, but whispers of more community events are bubbling up.[1] Swing by Old Spokes Home later this week for a Bike Fit Workshop on January 7th, tuning up your ride for winter trails and making those commutes safer and smoother for everyday adventurers.[5] Families, the Burlington Cat Show meows into town January 17th and 18th at the DoubleTree, showcasing over 100 fabulous felines, breed parades, and shelter stars— a purr-fect outing that highlights our love for animals and could lead to a new furry friend.[7]
On the civic side, the Conservation Board meets Monday at 5:30 p.m., tackling green initiatives that keep our parks and waterfront thriving for generations.[3] Meanwhile, local journalism from Seven Days spotlights Vermonters we lost in 2025, from rock roadies to trans advocates, reminding us to honor their legacies by supporting our tight-knit community.[1] And with 802Spirits pouring profits back into spots like Bristol Discount Beverage, shopping local truly fuels our neighborhoods.[1]
Whether youre chasing wellness, tunes, or tail-wagging fun, Burlingtons got the spark to make this year unforgettable. This has been Burlington Local Frequency. Well see you tomorrow with more local updates.
