Hanford was the scene for multiple New Year’s Eve parties Tuesday night.
Downtown, a celebration was held during the Winter Wonderland event at Civic Park. A drone show took place above Superior Dairy — the flying devices’ colorful lights created a display to ring in the new year at 9 p.m. local time to coincide with the ball dropping in New York City.
Across town, Hanford’s Portuguese community celebrated the New Year with a big party surrounded by family and friends. This year’s bash was held at St. John’s Hall.
Viewers take photos and videos of the drone show above Civic Park on New Year’s Eve.
