There is an Irish bar that has a huge family friendly party that they attend every year and when it's over, they can go home and put he kids to bed! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/european-new-years-eve#post-2001920 Tue, 30 Dec 2014 04:02:44 +0000 Bubbles 2001920@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>London has fireworks and countdown on the South Bank - it's televised on BBC1, not sure if you can get that? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/european-new-years-eve#post-2001903 Tue, 30 Dec 2014 01:38:43 +0000 Pumuckl 2001903@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I only know about the big party at Brandenburger Tor in Berlin. It's live concerts and then a NY Countdown followed by fireworks. About 1 mio people come out to celebrate. That be EST-6h though. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/european-new-years-eve#post-2001896 Tue, 30 Dec 2014 01:09:09 +0000 lamariniere 2001896@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm in Europe, but I'm no help since I'll probably be asleep before midnight. :silly: Maybe tune into the BBC? I think most places just have a lot of fireworks. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/european-new-years-eve#post-2001813 Mon, 29 Dec 2014 22:44:07 +0000 fussygal 2001813@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Such a good idea! We're always in bed by 10:00 at the latest these days and there's no way I'm giving up precious sleep just to watch TV at midnight! :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/european-new-years-eve#post-2001800 Mon, 29 Dec 2014 22:26:45 +0000 78h2o 2001800@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@birdofafeather: you're lucky! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/european-new-years-eve#post-2001794 Mon, 29 Dec 2014 22:15:36 +0000 Mae 2001794@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@woodentulip: back up plan, I guess! </p> <p>@birdofafeather: I'm on EST so that doesn't help me haha </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/european-new-years-eve#post-2001792 Mon, 29 Dec 2014 22:13:27 +0000 birdofafeather 2001792@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>we're gonna celebrate on NYC time over here on the west coast. :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/european-new-years-eve#post-2001778 Mon, 29 Dec 2014 21:52:29 +0000 woodentulip 2001778@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>While it wouldn't be quite the same, you could youtube the 2013 countdown ;) </p> <p>We have often celebrated Newfoundland New Years (which is also now too late for us in Ontario...it was better in Alberta!), and last year we did the youtube 2012 countdown at a family party at 7:30. Perfect! In bed by 9 and no worse for wear! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/european-new-years-eve#post-2001766 Mon, 29 Dec 2014 21:34:55 +0000 Mae 2001766@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Cole: I think they have a kid's cartoon one. I wanted a grown up party party one... just at 7pm ;) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/european-new-years-eve#post-2001745 Mon, 29 Dec 2014 21:14:54 +0000 Cole 2001745@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>That's a great idea! I am not sure about how to do it but my husband did mention today that Netflix has a ball drop show of some sort that you can turn on whenever you're ready. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/european-new-years-eve#post-2001735 Mon, 29 Dec 2014 21:09:16 +0000 Mae 2001735@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>So DH and I are staying in for NYE and probably won't even stay up to watch the ball drop. But we'd sort of like to celebrate early and were thinking we could probably find some live streaming video of the ball drop (or... whatever they do there? lol) in like.. London or something. </p> <p>Has anyone ever done this? Which European city has the best midnight celebration? And where can we watch? </p>
