<\/a><\/p>\n1. Las Vegas, whatelse?<\/strong><\/p>\n Enjoy dancing (and drinking) in the streets with more than 300,000 fellow partiers. Take your pick: the free-for-all, nightclub-strewn Strip or the 21-and-over Fremont Street Experience with three stages and nine hours of live bands; both are closed to traffic. Listen to the crowds roar at midnight when fireworks erupt from casino roofs around the city.<\/p>\n 2. Berlin, hipster mood<\/strong><\/p>\n One million-plus hedonists and hipsters can\u2019t be wrong. The 1.2 mile stretch between the Victory Column and Brandenburg Gate is the place to celebrate Silvester \u2014 German for New Year\u2019s Eve. Live bands and fireworks highlight this notorious outdoor party. For those ready to start their resolutions early, here\u2019s our alternative pick: the 39th annual New Year\u2019s Eve Run through the idyllic Gr\u00fcnewald forest.<\/p>\n 3. Los Angeles, Hollywood vibe<\/strong><\/p>\n We love Hollywood\u2019s exclusive club scene, rowdy pub crawls and over-the-top Cleopatra\u2019s New Year\u2019s Eve Ball, but this year downtown\u2019s new Grand Park features live music, art installations, food trucks and a digital video show on the walls of City Hall. Post midnight, head to Pasadena to watch floats being assembled for the legendary New Year\u2019s Day Tournament of Roses Parade.<\/p>\n 4.\u00a0Reykjavik Dream<\/strong><\/p>\n When the sun sets around 4 p.m., visitors in Reykjavik bide their time while locals enjoy mass, neighborhood bonfires and an annual comedy show on T.V. Come midnight, though, Iceland\u2019s capital explodes with 500 tons of fireworks. If you\u2019re lucky, the Northern Lights will blaze above the city, too. Making up for the late start, bars and clubs beckon until five in the morning.<\/p>\n 5. Sidney \u2013 Opera House<\/strong><\/p>\n A breathtaking light parade on Sydney Harbour? Check. Spectacular fireworks? Check. More than a million people gathered to be among the first to usher in 2015? Double check. For an unforgettable front row seat, grab tickets for one of the city\u2019s best events with a view \u2014 we suggest the Royal Botanic Gardens or the La Boh\u00e8me gala at the Opera House.<\/p>\n 6. New Orleans \u2013 Jackson Square<\/strong><\/p>\n No slouch when it comes to throwing a party, the Big Easy rings in the New Year with vigor and verve. The place to be: Jackson Square, where Baby New Year drops from the top of Jax Brewery at midnight while fireworks scatter over the Mississippi River \u2014 book a steamboat cruise for prime viewing. Afterward, let the good times roll with all-night revelry on Bourbon Street.<\/p>\n 7. London Eye\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n London lights up as fireworks shoot from rafts on the Thames and the foot of the London Eye. Best spots for watching: Victoria Embankment and the South Bank. Many areas require tickets, so check ahead. Better yet, hire a barge for exclusive views, then head for the pubs to sing Auld Lang Syne. But don\u2019t stay out too late; the New Year\u2019s Day parade is one of London\u2019s major events.<\/p>\n 8. New York, New York\u2026<\/strong><\/p>\n Blinding neon, world-class performers and that famous ball drop. Times Square is a given for merrymakers who want to go the classic route. As for those who prefer their festivities with an edge, there\u2019s only one choice. Purchase an Official All-Access Meatpacking District Party Pass and you\u2019ll glide past the velvet ropes at the neighborhood\u2019s top bars and clubs \u2014 premium open bars included and bragging rights guaranteed.<\/p>\n 9. Welcome to Miami<\/strong><\/p>\n Who? 250,000 locals and international visitors. What? The biggest fireworks show south of Times Square. Where? Bayfront Park, home to The Big Orange \u2014 live bands, family-friendly festivities, fireworks over Biscayne Bay and a midnight countdown as a 35-foot neon orange descends from the top of the InterContinental Miami.<\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n
