WHAT IS #FHNY?

Started in 2011, #FHNY is a free, outdoor celebration that draws a diverse, all-ages crowd of tens of thousands of guests -- from 48 states and 11 countries -- to downtown Columbia, S.C. The Midlands region comes together for the New Year's holiday, with expanded hours at family-friendly destinations, pop-up NYE parties at local restaurants and clubs, specials at neighborhood shops, hotel deals and more. *Bring a clear bag or no bag to get through security more quickly!
