Looking for a fun city to ring in the new year without breaking the bank? WalletHub ranked cities across the country according to their food and entertainment options, safety and overall cost.

There's always a theme to the New Year's Eve party, and this year it's "the dance floor."

"The dance floor is a really fun place where we can all get down, we can all enjoy each other, and we can all celebrate. And really, that's what Grand Park is, too," said Interim Director Julia Diamond. "So our theme is 'the dance floor.' That means you're going to see dancing on the buildings, you're going to see dancing on the stages."

The event, located at 200 North Grand Avenue, began at 8 p.m. Sunday and ends at 1 a.m. Monday.
