New Year's Eve 2017 concerts: Over 20 shows to go to on Dec. 31

Culture

With the passing of pop icons like David BowiePrince and George Michael, who died this past Christmas Day, 2016 has been an especially tragic year for the music industry. In the wake of the last grueling 12 months, making plans for New Year's Eve feels like an especially futile challenge, but what better way to celebrate their artistry than by welcoming 2017 with performances from Billy Joel, Bush, Sting and so many other loved and celebrated artists. 

Say farewell to 2016 with the below list of shows happening on Dec. 31.
