San Francisco kicked off 2025 with a bang.

A large crowd of people packed the Embarcadero for the annual fireworks show at the stroke of midnight.

The fireworks was launched from a barge stationed between the Ferry Building and the Bay Bridge.

It’s a 15-minute display that the producer said is a special show just for the City by the Bay.

At lunchtime, the California Hornblower steam boat was already making it’s New Year’s Eve lunch run. It will be cruising just before midnight as well.

Outside Chase Center at midday, some people had their own 2025 countdown for what organizers called a celebration for those who don’t plan on staying up until midnight.

Later Tuesday night, a large crowd gathered as they were waiting to watch the show. It also meant business along the Embarcadero were selling all kinds of sparkly New Year’s Eve.

“I’m selling balloons, lights, teddy bears for the girls for the people in love so they can enter the new year with a good partner and love,” said street vendor Omar Gonzalez.

“We’re really excited for the new year-it seems there’s more movement downtown and we’re hoping it’s looking up,” said Jacob Paronyan, General manager of Boulevard Restaurant.

For those who got a window seat at Boulevard, they had a great view of those fireworks at midnight.

“What we love about this place in San Francisco. It is San Francisco and San Francisco is on its way back and we’re looking forward to a great 2025,” said Jeff Stack of San Francisco.

From San Francisco to San Jose, the Bay Area is gearing up to kick off 2025 with a bang. Terry McSweeney and Jocelyn Moran report.
