As the new year approaches, New York City gets ready for its annual New Year’s Eve in Times Square celebration. The famous ball drop atop One Times Square has been a tradition dating back to 1906. Each year, over one million people descend upon Times Square to party and experience this free and memorable event!

Times Square is a New Year’s Eve destination that on the must-do list, worth taking flights to New York for. One million people fill the square from early afternoon waiting for the Ball to descend.  Ahead of the big day, you can add your wishes for 2013 online or in person and your wish will be part of the confetti.

If you are planning to join the party, get there early and be prepared – you’ll be corralled into barricaded areas where you’ll have to stay for the duration. After the ball drop in Times Square, buy tickets and celebrate some more at one of the officially hot, popular New Year’s Top 10 Eve parties in NYC featured below!
