How is the New Year's Eve celebrated in Spain?

Normally, the end of the year in Spain is celebrated away from home or at the home of friends. The most typical image of Spanish New Year's Eve are the bells of Puerta del Sol in Madrid, although in almost all municipalities there is a main square where people gather to hear the last bells of the year.

It is a night where everyone dresses to the nines, eating a good dinner together and toasting with cava. Although, without a doubt, the most characteristic of the end of the year in Spain are the 12 grapes, a tradition that consists of eating 12 grapes, one for each stroke, during the last 12 seconds of the year.

 

How is the New Year's Eve celebrated in other countries?

Since this New Year's Eve is inevitably going to be different, why not adopt traditions from other countries? It can be a fun way to learn about traditions from other cultures and countries.

Eat lentils for dinner like in Italy: Italians eat lentils on New Years to attract a year full of wealth and prosperity, because in the past it was believed that flat legumes looked like Roman coins.
Clean the home deeply like in Japan: In Japan the end of the year is a very important date and one of the many traditions that we can adopt this special year is called Osoji. The Osoji is a Japanese ritual that consists of cleaning the house thoroughly to purify it and start the year on the right foot. Originally, the Japanese took an extended period of time to thoroughly clean their homes in the belief that then the houses would be "purified" and the evil spirits would not have a place to hide and live.
Go for a walk or around the house with suitcases: This is the ritual followed by some Latin American countries, such as Colombia and Chile, in which one of the New Year's Eve traditions is to pack on the last day of the year and when midnight comes catch it and go for a walk around the block to have good trips in the new year. Although the best way to travel next 2021 is to book your next vacation now, remember that we have our Early Booking offer available with which you can save up to -15% on your vacation on the Costa Brava.
