Washington, D.C. no longer has an official New Year's firework celebration. (We are still scratching our head over this one.) Fear not because a nearby Virginia town has answered the call to see those bright colors burst in the sky. First Night Alexandria is one of the best family-friendly celebrations around. Local venues turn their buildings into performance venues to showcase local and regional talent. More than 100 performances including musicians to artists will take place before the spectacular fireworks display on the Potomac River at the foot of King Street. METRO: King St.- Old Town

- Best for Things to Do in December Because: New Year's Eve without fireworks is like Christmas without a tree. While several other cities have wonderful displays, Alexandria's is not to be missed.
