NYE 2023 at Celebration Square

The Square becomes your dancefloor with a line-up of the year’s biggest artists. Banx & Ranx, masterminds behind 2022’s hottest tracks, headline the night with their catchy pop hooks, trap rhythms, and Caribbean influences. The duo is joined by two icons of pop and long time collaborators that will keep you moving all night long. Rêve hits the stage with her dance-pop bangers and Preston Pablo, sets the mood with the R&B vibes behind his hit track, “Flowers Need Rain”.

With tasty food trucks, a fabulous Face Glitter Bar, skating on the City’s largest outdoor rink, fireworks, and so much more, the Square is the place to be for 2023!

Hosted by Rebecca Tandon and Mississauga’s own Scott Willats, with DJ Andre 905 spinning all night long.
