Spend New Year’s Eve in Austin with Space Squid

Kids, we’re happy to announce that the City has approved Space Squid to unleash– I mean, unveil — unveil its latest and greatest weapon of feckless fun to Austinites on December 31st as part of the Austin’s New Year event.

Austin’s New Year is the spiritual successor to the late great First Night Austin. Like First Night, Austin’s New Year is a free, family-friendly celebration of the arts that’ll take place in the afternoon and evening of December 31. This year, the event will run from 5p to 10:30p at Auditorium Shores (South 1st Street and Riverside) and feature films, food, music from artists like Carolyn Wonderland and the inimitable Lavelle White… and of course Space Squid!

Our activity will be the Self-Transmogrifier, and I don’t want to give too much away, but… we’re offering you and your friends and fam the chance to be transformed and transported. And you’ll walk away with a digital keepsake of the night that you can treasure forever. Or not. It’s your call.

Whatever the case, we hope to see you at Auditorium Shores, and happy holidays!
