New Year's Eve is December 31, 2023. At this time, the whole world will hold New Year's Eve events such as music festivals, fireworks and countdown 10 seconds together to officially enter the new year.

New Year's Eve is the transition between the last day of the old year and the first day of the new year. This is one of the important ceremonies in the customs and cultures of many ethnic groups.

According to the simplified Sino-Vietnamese dictionary by Dao Duy Anh, New Year's Eve means "The old year passes, the new year takes over - When the old year passes, the new year comes".

On this occasion, many Western and Eastern countries often organize fireworks or other festivals to end the old year (New Year's Eve) and welcome the new year at exactly 0:00:00:00 on January 1 for New Year's Day.

For Lunar New Year, New Year's Eve is the sacred moment on the 30th night of Tet, when the weather changes to spring, officially starting the new year.

At the end of the year, people often review the memories of the old year, review what they have done in the past year, set goals to complete in the new year, and have fun, joining in the bustling atmosphere around the world.
