About New Year's Eve

New Year's Eve is celebrated on December 31st, the last day of the year in the Gregorian calendar. Festivities typically include parties, fireworks, concerts, and countdown events. Famous celebrations include the ball drop in New York City's Times Square, fireworks over Sydney Harbour, and midnight gatherings in cities around the world. Many people use the occasion to reflect on the past year and set resolutions for the year ahead.

How to prepare for New Year's Eve

If you're traveling for New Year's Eve, book flights and hotels by early November — prices surge closer to the date. For house parties, plan the menu, playlist, and midnight toast supplies at least a week ahead. If attending a public event like a fireworks show or ball drop, arrive early and dress warmer than you think you need to. Start thinking about your New Year's resolutions before the 31st so you can hit the ground running on January 1st.
