When does the new year start around the world?

The new year arrives first in Kiribati’s Line Islands (UTC+14), then Samoa, Tonga and New Zealand, and moves west across Australia, Asia, Europe, Africa and the Americas. The last inhabited places to celebrate are American Samoa and Niue (UTC−11) – 25 hours after Kiribati; only uninhabited Baker Island (UTC−12) is later, 26 hours after the first. The countdown above runs to midnight where you are; the tracker shows everyone else.
