Berlin is duly proud of it's
reputation for annually hosting one of the largest
New Year's Eve celebrations in Europe, and probably
the world. The huge outdoor event is generally
attended by well over one million people, who brave
the cold and frequently highly inclement weather
conditions to take to the streets for one huge
party. The focal point of the celebrations is the
famous and iconic Brandenburg Gate, which stands
sentinel over the architecturally dramatic city
centre and uses this position of prominence well in
holding the main midnight fireworks display. |

The New Year’s
Eve Party in Berli takes place along
some of the city's most well known,
beautiful and famous streets, the
Straße des 17 Juni between
Brandenburger Tor and Siegessäule.
Away from the main party, there will
be fireworks across the city
lighting up the sky, including at
The Fernsehturm TV tower at
Alexanderplatz - this lesser known
landmark is actually one of the
tallest buildings in Europe, and
boasts an observation platform at
over 200 metres across the city,
providing an excellent vantage
point.
The River Spree,
running right through the heart of
the city offers many viewing points
for those happier with a quieter
location. Potsdamer Platz is another
popular and busy area of the city,
with a wide range of hotels, bars
and restaurants that tends to
provide a focal point for gatherings
earlier in the evening, before the
main crowds start to head on down to
the maion street parties.
Berlin is another
on the increasingly long list of
global cities to join in the
American tradition of the ball drop
popularised in Times Square each
year, and now holds it's very own
New Year's Eve ball drop on Main
street, preceded by a range of
seasonal festivities, including live
music, street dancing and horse
drawn carriage rides.
For those looking
for something a little more lively,
Odyssee 2013 is an annual and
expanding New Years Eve electronic
music and arts festival at The old
Kindl brewery Neukölln. A massive
lineup of electronic music stars,
performers and DJ's helps to bring
in the new year 2014 in style. |

Accommodation in Berlin is
plentiful and caters for a genuinely wide range of
tastes, but on such a popular night it is always
recommended to get your booking in early. You can
find local hotels and make online reservations
