New Year’s Eve is fast approaching; will you celebrate it in a tiny city or another fantastic place? Some people like to stay in the same place to celebrate New Years every year. But some of us like to travel the world and find some great places to celebrate another year. For those people, I have made the top 5 where you definitely should spend New Years once in your life.
- New York City, New York
New York is known for it’s best New Year’s party in Times Square. Amazing artists will perform that night, and the whole street is full of people who are ready to celebrate. You will find yourself counting down the seconds to midnight while a huge ball is slowly dropped down from a pole on top of the Times Square building. Of course, there also will be huge fireworks when the clock ticks midnight! If you are not celebrating New Year’s in New York this year but got excited while reading this, you can always watch the movie New Year’s Eve. Just to get the feeling.
- Sydney, Australia
Sydney always has the most amazing fireworks to celebrate New Years. Australia is also one of the first countries that are going into the New Year. The people gather around to see the amazing fireworks at the opera house, and there are lots of parties going on the fireworks.
- Barcelona, Spain
Individuals who love culture and tradition should celebrate New Years in Barcelona. All the Catalan people eat twelve grapes in the last twelve seconds till midnight. When you’ve eaten them in time, it brings you good luck in 2017! If you want to see a big fireworks spectacle, you can go to Placa España or Torre Agbar.
4. Rio de Janeiro, Brazil
New Year’s is one of the greatest events in Rio. On December 31 people dance on their bare feet into the New Year, on the beach of Copacabana Beach. At midnight, fireworks will be shot into the sea of the beach. A real spectacle. There will be parties and live music the whole night.
6. London, England
Over 250.000 people crowd onto the banks of the Thames River and begin the countdown to Big Ben striking the hour of midnight. When the Big Ben strikes the magic hour, a firework spectacle will follow around the clock tower. The party usually continues throughout the night with activities planned for the next day including a three-hour parade with bands, floats, dancers and of course the Queen’s horses.
Wherever you spend New Year’s, enjoy it with your friends and family. The Grid BCN wants to wish you all an amazing 2017 and may all your dreams come true!
