In Asia, the most spectacular light shows are usually seen in Hong Kong, Singapore and Tokyo. According to the Hong Kong Tourism Board (HKTB), the New Year’s countdown will start 60 seconds before midnight. The “Shooting Stars” pyrotechnics will last for 10 minutes on the harbor front.

Meanwhile, a live street party featuring various performances will start at 10:00 p.m. at the Tsim Sha Tsui Pier, with Australian performing arts group Strange Fruit as one of this year’s guests, according to the HKTB.
