When the countdown ends, a colorful Zia symbol hand-crafted by a traditional local artisan will rise at the stroke of midnight. In recognition of Santa Fe’s status as #TheCityDifferent, nothing will drop. The Kiwanis Club of Santa Fe will provide free hot chocolate and biscochitos, New Mexico’s official state cookie while supplies last.Īround 11:45 pm, Mayor Alan Webber and city officials will invite the crowd to count down to a peaceful, prosperous new year. The free festivities begin at 8 pm with the Plaza warmed by stationary heaters and cozy piñon bonfires scenting the night air. Heat up the night with live music from Santa Fe's favorite bands.

Ring in the New Year in Santa Fe, NM, on Sunday, December 31, 2023 at a FREE, fun, festive party as The City Different says ¡Adios! to 2023 at the 9th Annual New Year's Eve on the Santa Fe Plaza. It's a further drive to get to Ruidoso but well worth the trip and the casinos there seem to really appreciate our business.A City Different New Year's Eve on the Santa Fe Plaza Our last trip was 2 months aqo and we will not be going back. There are always a lot of machines that are 'out of service' and remain that way for months on end and if a machine you are playing jams up, be prepared to wait and wait and wait for someone to come fix it.it does not seem to be a priority at Black Gold to keep players playing their machines. You cannot get away from the cigarette smoke and it's obvious quite quickly that there is not adequate filtering to rid the casino of the smoke. There is one stall in the upstairs bathroom (which you can no longer access from the bottom floor of the casino) that has been out of order for at least 3 years. Half the time the soft drink machines are broken or there is no ice or cups. I understand there is a new owner of this place and even going weekly, we never see anyone winning anything. Several years ago we could actually hit something and walk out with a little money, but not these days. We used to visit Black Casino every week as we live not too far away.
