20 Top Destinations to Spend This New Year’s Eve

Everyone loves a great New Year’s Eve celebration. It’s a holiday that brings us all together for fun with hopes of a positive future year. One major difference, though, is how we like to ring in the New Year. Some of us would prefer a great snowy vacation while others want to see fireworks over a beach. Some people want more time to quietly reflect while others naturally gravitate to the party. Here are a few great ideas for places to ring in the new year, no matter what you are looking for.

Sydney, Australia

Sydney, Australia is at the top of the list because it is one of the first major cities to ring in the new year. The celebrations there are grand and include a boat parade, projections, and many other traditions. Their fireworks display is known around the world and glistens over Sydney Harbour. The Sydney Opera House is the premiere location for Australia’s NYE spectacular.

Paris, France

The City of Light rings in the new year with a light and music show at the Arc de Triomphe. You will also find major celebrations at Disneyland Paris and along the banks of the Seine. If you ring in the new year in Paris, make sure you don’t miss out on the delicious food and mandatory glass of Champagne.

Park City, Utah

Park City, Utah is a skiers paradise. If you are an outdoor lover or avid skier, you will love New Year’s Eve at one of the local ski resorts. For a more classic NYE celebration, you can join in one of the parties at any of the downtown Deer Valley luxury hotels.

The Palm Beaches, Florida

If a long, cold December has you feeling the winter blues, head for the beach for New Year’s Eve. The Palm Beaches in Florida are perfect at this time of year. Local resorts as well as bars and restaurants all have plenty of activities, plus you can watch fireworks on the beach.
