No New Year’s Eve list is complete without mentioning the world-famous ball drop in Times Square. Every year, over a million people flock to this iconic location to watch the glittering crystal ball descend at midnight. Live performances by top artists, a vibrant atmosphere, and a sea of confetti make it one of the most exhilarating ways to welcome the New Year. For a less crowded experience, opt for a rooftop bar with views of Manhattan.
