Summer holidays

The programme of New Year's Eve celebrations held in city centre squares is intended for people of all ages and tastes. A minute after midnight, a fireworks display will set the skies above Ljubljana alight and announce the beginning of a new year.

In ancient Greece

May Day in Athens will be celebrated with traditional events and music for all ages. Youngsters are invited to make their own May wreaths flooding the area with spring scents and flowers.

At 8 p.m. enjoy a musical event, titled “Songs of May and Spring”.

Events are free and take place at Koliatsou Square and Amerikis Square.

If you are a party animal and just can't get enough of New Year's Eve celebrations, should prolong your stay in Serbia, which has another New Year's Eve on January 13.

No, Serbs are not addicted to having two "wildest nights of the year" in one month. The second celebration is a consequence of the fact that the Serbian Orthodox Church still sticks to the old, Julian calendar.

On New Year's Eve, the team of AGERPRES National News Agency wishes you good health, happiness, prosperity and peace of mind.

AGERPRES thanks you for the collaboration and for the confidence you grant us every day.

HAPPY NEW YEAR!
