The Drop on Main
Main Street, Downtown Columbia | 8:00 PM – 1:30 AM
Ring in 2026 with thousands of locals at Columbia’s biggest street celebration. The Drop on Main Block Party transforms the 1600 block into a live-music, dancing, and midnight-countdown experience right in the heart of downtown.
Enjoy performances throughout the evening, cash bars along Main, and food vendors serving up late-night bites. The highlight of the night: the iconic Main Street ball drop and countdown moment in front of the Nickelodeon Theatre, featuring DJ Liv spinning the ultimate New Year’s soundtrack.
