ORLANDO, Fla. — Revelers packed downtown Orlando last night to ring in the new year.

An estimated 3,000 people crowded into Church to watch the Big Orange Drop on 2020 at midnight. 

Live music and a video wall helped provide entertainment all evening long. 

The Big Orange Drop has been going on for 20 years, and those putting on the event say you can only get this kind of fun in Central Florida.   

"New Year’s is our crown jewel event of the year," said Orange Drop founder and organizer Pete Ghalam. "With our roots in the citrus industry it’s something we want to be known for."

Orlando Police said extra security will be in place. Extra officers will be patrolling in cruisers, bicycle, and horses.

Meanwhile, sports fans hung out at Wall Street Plaza for that new year's celebration. We asked people what they wanted to see in the new year, and these partiers had big dreams for Orlando, wishing the Magic would make the playoffs, that a baseball team or even an NFL team would come to Orlando.
