New Year&#8217;s Eve is one of the biggest and most exciting events in the world. The solemn transition from the past to the future is the opportunity to be in the thick of it and to welcome the year 2018.<br \/>\nMany cities and hotspots around the world want to offer their guests an unforgettable New Year&#8217;s Eve on the last day of the year. For those of you who are having a hard time deciding on where to spend New Year&#8217;s Eve this year, ebab did some research. Below we recommend you five cities where you can experience a unique New Year&#8217;s Eve.<\/p>\n<p class=\"western\"><b>Rome<\/b><\/p>\n<p class=\"western\">The biggest party of the year in Rome takes place in Piazza del Popolo on New Year&#8217;s Eve, with fireworks and local pop bands playing in front of a large crowd. You can also spend an unforgettable New Year&#8217;s Eve in other locations in Rome. For example, during a free concert at the Circus Maximus or at a dance party around the Coliseum. Do not forget that traditionally, after midnight, lentils are eaten to bring prosperity in the new year. Even more important is the custom of wearing red underwear on New Year&#8217;s Eve in order to be rewarded with health, happiness and love.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ebab.com\/gay-travel-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/2017-12-01-rom2.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-653\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ebab.com\/gay-travel-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/2017-12-01-rom2-1024x549.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"660\" height=\"354\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.ebab.com\/gay-travel-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/2017-12-01-rom2-1024x549.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.ebab.com\/gay-travel-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/2017-12-01-rom2-300x161.png 300w, https:\/\/www.ebab.com\/gay-travel-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/2017-12-01-rom2-768x411.png 768w, https:\/\/www.ebab.com\/gay-travel-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/2017-12-01-rom2.png 1159w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 660px) 100vw, 660px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p class=\"western\"><b>Barcelona<\/b><\/p>\n<p class=\"western\">The locals traditionally spend New Year&#8217;s Eve with their families and close friends. Nevertheless, Barcelona has been an exceptional place to start the new year for several years. Plaza Espa\u00f1a hosts a huge New Year&#8217;s Eve party. There are concerts and fireworks, and of course, the tradition comes with the 12 grapes &#8211; &#8220;The twelve grapes of luck&#8221;: at midnight, a grape is eaten at each stroke of the clock, one for each month. Who has eaten all 12 grapes after the twelfth strike will be particularly lucky in the new year.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ebab.com\/gay-travel-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/2017-12-01-barcelona.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-657\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ebab.com\/gay-travel-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/2017-12-01-barcelona.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"608\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.ebab.com\/gay-travel-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/2017-12-01-barcelona.png 800w, https:\/\/www.ebab.com\/gay-travel-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/2017-12-01-barcelona-300x228.png 300w, https:\/\/www.ebab.com\/gay-travel-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/2017-12-01-barcelona-768x584.png 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p class=\"western\"><b>Berlin<\/b><\/p>\n<p class=\"western\">Berlin is a fascinating city that never sleeps throughout the year.
