Much earlier: The event is celebrated at noon on Dec. 31, and again at 3 o&#8217;clock.<\/p>\n<p>This gives grown-ups and little ones the upbeat opportunity to savor the year-ending, year-beginning festivity about 12 hours, or 9 hours, in advance, meaning everyone can be tucked up at home well before dark.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.discoverycube.org\/los-angeles\/events\/noon-years-eve\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">A ticket is $28<\/a>, and there are some left, though they do go fast as Dec. 31 approaches.<\/p>\n<p>Apple cider is the beverage of choice, or ginger ale if you&#8217;re seeking something a bit spicy, and a DJ will be on hand to get the revelers moving.<\/p>\n<p>The museum will be open, too, for browsing, looking, and enjoying. Some of the science-themed exhibits including a look at Zamboni tech (paging hockey fans) and a broadcast booth giving youngsters room to try making some news.<\/p>\n<p>Holiday merriment is also afoot, with the Science of Gingerbread on delicious display.<\/p>\n<p>So can you truly and joyfully jump into the magic of New Year&#8217;s Eve several hours in advance?<\/p>\n<p>Absolutely: New beginnings are there to be embraced at any point, even at noon or 3 p.m. on the last day of the year.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"What to Know Noon Year&#8217;s Eve Discovery Cube Los Angeles Wednesday, Dec. 31 9 a.m. to 6 p.m.&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":467482,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[5123],"tags":[1582,276,7709,2961,224,5337,24757],"class_list":{"0":"post-467481","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-los-angeles","8":"tag-ca","9":"tag-california","10":"tag-holidays","11":"tag-la","12":"tag-los-angeles","13":"tag-losangeles","14":"tag-sylmar"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@us\/115771099646400974","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/467481","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=467481"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/467481\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/467482"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=467481"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=467481"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=467481"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
