The awards ceremony is slated to begin at 7:30 p.m. and run until 9:30. From 10:00 p.m. to 1:00 a.m., ring in the New Year with live music, dancing, and drinks as The Zuits take the Jazz Depot stage with their neo-swing jazz tunes. From smooth blues to roaring swing, The Zuits will transport you back to the days of zoot suits and swing dance with the best New Year’s Eve party in town.
