New Year's Eve celebrations in New York's Prospect and Central Parks were canceled due to safety concerns from bad weather.

The New York Road Runners cancelled its fleet of 500 drones less than a week before its annual midnight run event in a decision organizers say was out of their control.

Thornton Park hosts its annual New Year’s Eve Street Party with DJs, dancing and multiple venues for partying. Online advance tickets cost $25. The party starts at 8 p.m. Dec. 31 on East Washington Street in Orlando. More information: eventbrite.com

With Dec. 31 less than a week away, the Central Park show could not go on, according to New York Road Runners, the group that organizes the still-happening Midnight Run through the park on New Year’s Eve. The drone show, like the fireworks most years, was meant to accompany the run.

At least five drone shows have been canceled or have paused the use of the systems, after several drones struck a crowd at a holiday show in Orlando on December 21.

The New York Road Runners customarily shoot off fireworks during their midnight run in the popular Manhattan park, but opted for a drone show after a record brush fire period throughout the city last month.

Holiday drone shows have been rising in popularity but some are being cancelled after a mishap in Florida that left a 7-year-old boy badly hurt.
