Ring in 2026 with K-Pop, global talent and fireworks at Mississauga Celebration Square!

This year’s festivities kick off with an interactive K-Pop spotlight with viral Montreal dance group East2West, that sets the tone for a high-energy night, followed by a dynamic lineup of live performances including UK pop darlings Say Now, anime-rave DJ Alex Kade and Mississauga’s CMAGIC5 that will carry thousands of residents and visitors into 2026.

Families can take part in the Junior Confetti Countdown which is a fun, colourful moment designed for kids and early birds to celebrate the New Year before bedtime.

As the final countdown concludes, a spectacular fireworks display will light up the night sky, marking the City’s first moments of 2026 with a beautiful celebration of colour.
