About thirteen years ago, a couple of community-minded Bristol residents, not wanting to drive to Burlington for a festive, music-filled, alcohol-free New Year’s Eve, decided to throw a local event they called Bristol Best Night.

That tradition has grown over the years. Always planned and staged by community volunteers, always focused on the amazing talent we have here in Addison County, and always determined to be a family-oriented event, Bristol Best Night has become a highlight of the holiday season.
