SHEBOYGAN – The annual Sartori Big Cheese Drop at Plymouth Arts Center, 520 E. Mill St., is nationally lauded as one of the country’s quirkiest New Year’s Eve traditions.
This year marks the 16th annual event as the community celebrates Plymouth as the official “Cheese Capital of the World.”
The event has drawn thousands of people in past years. The event is marked by a countdown and the lowering of a giant wedge of Sartori’s world award-winning BellaVitano Gold Cheese at 10 p.m.
Festivities begin at 8:30 p.m. in the PAC Greatroom with live music by II Cool. There will be a cheese-tasting table and a cash bar.
This is a family-friendly event. Enjoy complimentary hot cocoa and warm up at the bonfire from 8:30 to 10 p.m. Gift bags of Sartori cheese will be distributed to the first 250 families in attendance.
After the Big Cheese Drop at 10 p.m., music will continue until 12:30…
