Downtown Bangor Readies For New Year’s Eve Celebration [SCHEDULE]

Before the ball drops to usher in 2018, there are lots of things going on in Downtown Bangor.

Ringing in the New Year in Bangor is always a good (and usually really cold) time. Here are some of the highlights for what's planned this year. You can see a full list of events (subject to change) right here. 

There are no buttons or pins this year, and everything is free (unless otherwise noted.)
