Celebrate the holidays in a beautiful wooden frame![/caption]
The month of holidays is coming to a close. This December, GiftWorksPlus has looked at the history and traditions of Hanukkah, Christmas, and Kwanzaa. To finish out the holiday series and ring in another year, we’re popping open some fun facts, tips, and traditions about New Year’s from the United States and around the world!
The first New Year’s was celebrated over 4,000 years ago by the Babylonians, who celebrated it at the first full moon after spring equinox. However, New Year’s wasn’t celebrated in England or the American colonies until the mid-1750s. Today, the top three places people gather to celebrate New Year’s in the US are: New York City, Las Vegas, and Disney World. Approximately 1 million people go to New York City to ring in the New Year at Times Square. Internationally, over 1 million people fill Sydney Harbor’s 40 miles of shoreline to celebrate New Year’s and watch fireworks. And over 1 billion people around the world tune in to watch the countdown to midnight on TV each year.
Close to 360 million glasses of sparkling wine are consumed in the United States during the holiday season. 45% of Americans that make resolutions with the most popular goals being: losing weight, getting organized, staying fit, spending less, saving more money, and quitting smoking.
