Chervona Announces the 19th Annual Old New Year Signature Party: “EMERGENCY”
Saturday, January 10, 2026 – Star Theater Portland**
PORTLAND, OR — Portland’s beloved musical powerhouse Chervona proudly presents its 19th Annual Old New Year Signature Party, returning to the Star Theater on Saturday, January 10, 2026. The 2026 celebration carries the theme “EMERGENCY”—a joyful call to unite, uplift, and energize our community.
Why Celebrate Old New Year?
Across Eastern Europe, many communities celebrate the New Year twice: once on January 1st and again on the “Old New Year,” a tradition created during the calendar change more than a century ago.
This second New Year offers a playful reset: a fresh opportunity for wishes, dreams, and good intentions to come to life. If January 1st didn’t deliver the magic you hoped for… the Old New Year is your second launchpad.
Why “Emergency”?
Because the world is calling for more joy, more unity, and more presence than ever.
This year’s theme ”Emergency” is our creative response to global heaviness.
"The world is experiencing an emergency need—a need for joy, a need for music, and a need for community and celebration."
Instead of answering alarms, we answer with dancing. Instead of succumbing to stress, we answer with connection. And instead of giving into fear, we ignite collective magic.Our MCs step into the role of magicians, guiding a night charged with wonder. The performers, singers, and musicians bring an extraordinary energy designed to uplift the room and send a wave of positivity out into the world.
Introducing CHERVONA ORKESTAR
This year, Chervona expands into an extra-extended ensemble of outstanding musicians and singers, performing under a special name inspired by Eastern European tradition:

This is not just a concert; it’s a supercharged musical celebration.
Also featuring DJ Jedi discotheque, delivering the best mix of old favorites and modern hits to keep the dance floor alive all night.
