The first major city in the world welcomes the new year 2025

Auckland, New Zealand, is one of the first places in the world to welcome the new year 2025.

On December 31, thousands of people and tourists gathered to count down to the new year, immersing themselves in the bustling atmosphere with brilliant New Year's Eve fireworks fired from Sky Tower, New Zealand's tallest building in Auckland city. The highlight of the event was the colorful light show, creating a spectacular and impressive scene.

6 hours ahead of Vietnam time, New Zealanders welcomed the New Year's Eve at 6pm Vietnam time.

Many people flock to central Auckland or climb the volcanoes around the city to admire the fireworks and lights. This year's program also has a special meaning in honoring the culture and rights of indigenous Māori ethnic groups, after a vibrant year with many protests on the rights of indigenous people in New Zealand, a country with a population of about 5 million people.

Auckland is not only the first major city but also located in the South Pacific region, where countries always welcome the New Year the earliest in the world. The midnight bell here rings 2 hours before Sydney, 13 hours before London and 18 hours before New York.

This event marks a brilliant and meaningful start to 2025, adding hope and joy to the city's residents as well as visitors attending.
