Bring a bottle and dress up warm to watch the crystal ball drop on the stroke of midnight at one of the world’s biggest street parties.

Times Square - New Year Evening street party

To get a bit fresh idea what is like to be there you can see new Hollywood film  – New Year’s Eve – with several stars acting ( Halle Berry, Sarah Jessica Parker, Michelle Pfeiffer, Jon Bon Jovi, Ashton Kutcher, Hilary Swank,)

The story in the films is about a two metre ball sits a top No. 1 Times Square (40 craftsmen construct the sphere, which shimmers blindingly with 504 triangular pieces of Waterford crystal) and at 11.59pm it begins its descent down a 77-foot (20 metre) flagpole. Cue frenzy. With much jostling, hugging, screaming and kissing, the ball touches bottom at the stroke of midnight and the crowd goes wild, ringing in the New Year in raucous New York style.

The crowds fill the space from 43rd and 59th Sts and between Broadway and 7th Ave to bursting. The best views are along Broadway from 43rd to 53rd and along 7th as far north as 59th. Bundle up against the icy weather and don’t forget warm socks! If you’ve other visits to make on this epic night, allow plenty of time and don’t expect to find a cab anywhere in the vicinity – all vehicular traffic flow stops at 6pm
