A New Year is celebrated all over the world with high spirits and great significance. Every country has their own way of welcoming the New Year with a great deal of emphasis on making amendments for the mistakes and bad choices made in the previous year. This act of letting go and welcoming the New Year with a positive outlook has a great impact on the year ahead. Everyone looks forward to celebrating the new year with their friends and family at a great event or party. With so many options galore, it might be a bit tricky to select just one. The following article is a brief account of when and where to crash at this New Year’s Eve.

Sydney, Australia

New Year in Sydney is truly a spectacular affair. From harbour picnics, dance parties, fireworks, party cruise boats to opera performances, the list of events during this busy time of the year is endless. Being the host of the world-famous landmarks like the Opera House and Harbour Bridge, Sydney is flooded with people of different cultures. The harbour is the place to be at with tons of festivities and celebrations spread throughout its coastline and if you’re among the few who like to step away from the crowd but also want to be a part of the celebrations, then the New Year’s Eve cruises would be the best option for you. A variety of cruise options are made available by the leading cruise operators each with its own special qualities. Among these, the authentic paddlewheeler stands out due to its old world touch combined with fully air-conditioned modern interiors. This well-built vessel with its outer decks will provide the best platform to view the midnight fireworks and the illuminated attractions of the harbour like the Opera House and Harbour Bridge. You are guaranteed a night of entertainment on board this particular cruise including a one hour live show performed by a talented Australian cast. Savor the moment in great spirits by feasting on the deluxe 5-course seated and served menu along with the premium selection of beverages from the fully licensed bar onboard. With limited guests, expansive outer decks and a wrap-around verandah enjoy all the events and views with no crowds. This luxury paddlewheeler is built to the greatest standard with exceptional service making it one of the most popular New Year cruises in Sydney. Moreover the cruise will be placed in a prime exclusion zone for the best views of the Sydney fireworks. This is arguably the best option to make a memorable occasion and welcome the New Year in style.

Amsterdam, Holland

The Netherlands is famous for its capital city, Amsterdam, which is one of the most expensive cities in Europe. This city is reckoned to have more culture per capita than any other capital in the world. With over twenty million visits in the past few years, Amsterdam is undoubtedly a top tourist location. From beautiful canals, diminutive houses, unconventional restaurants to world class museums, the city has more to it than it looks. New Year in Amsterdam is a dream for most partygoers, the reason being the lax attitude of the city towards the same. The city will be overflowing with glitzy and exclusive nightclubs so be sure to have pre-plans before you visit. The Shelter is a renowned nightclub hidden away under a basement, famous for its entrance which is through a hatch in the ground. This high-spirited club has a 24 hour entry so if you’re looking to part til dawn, this is the place for you.
