Birch Bay Ring of Fire & Hope

Join us for a breathtaking Birch Bay tradition — the Ring of Fire & Hope! At exactly 7:00 PM on New Year’s Eve, residents and visitors gather along the shoreline with road flares and battery operated LED lights to create a glowing ring of unity and celebration around Birch Bay. This community-powered event is a symbol of reflection, resilience, and hope for the year ahead.

Whether you're lighting a flare or simply watching the bay come alive with firelight, you’ll feel the magic of the moment as we come together to welcome a new year. Dress warm, bring friends and family, and be part of this unforgettable Birch Bay tradition!

Complimentary flares available at the Birch Bay Visitor Center in the days leading up to the event (limit one per household). There will once again be reusable, battery-operated, and eco-friendly LED flares available for purchase at the chamber.
