Each country has their own unique way of ringing in the new yearand some even observe the holiday on a completely different datebut we are all unified in our desire to celebrate, reflect, renew, and find joy in the season.
Here are a few fun trivia facts about New Year’s celebrations around the world:

– In Italy, people wear red underwear on New Years Day to bring good luck for the coming year.
– The second new moon after the winter solstice determines the date of the Chinese New Year.
– The Thai celebration of Songkran is a time for visiting families, bringing out statues of Buddha, and throwing water at passersby to wash away bad luck!
