Join us for a night of revelry!

What is Carousel?

Carousel is Meow Wolf’s 21+ New Year's Eve party that dances between elegance and futuristic. Imagine standing at the edge of a festival, staring up at a carousel lit up against dusk. It reminds you of something from the distant past, or perhaps the distant future. The joy and merriment of the party surrounds you, laughter and chattering mixing with the music from the party and the organ dancing in your ears as the hazy lights envelope you with their warm glow. That’s Carousel. It’s a celebration of another year past, and of what lies ahead in the new one.

You’ll weave among fellow partygoers, outfits straight out of a 1920s illustration or perhaps a mix of cyber-steampunk fantasy, while the sounds of the DJs and performers thrum around you. You’ll pass through our many worlds, immersing yourself in an experience you’ll not soon forget.

Dress to Impress

We invite you to dress for a night beyond your wildest dreams! (Of course, we kindly request you review our FAQ for dress restrictions before you indulge in said dreams).

A Sip to Remember

Give a toast to the new year with some of the party’s exclusive drinks.

A Cavalcade of Entertainment

A good party always has performers - come see who’s brightening our stages. Step up to the table and test your luck with Frick Frack Blackjack, experience otherworldly circus performances from Hot Fix Sideshow and dazzling burlesque from Gale Force. Wander across stilt walkers and keep your ear out for roaming music as our accordionist weaves through The Converged Worlds.

A Surprise Behind Every Corner

Indulge in many more delights like free carnival snacks, face painting, photo booths, and more to be revealed... Every good host keeps a surprise or two up their sleeve.
