About New Year
New Year's Day, January 1, is the first day of the Gregorian calendar and a public holiday almost everywhere. Because the world has many time zones, the new year does not arrive at once: it starts on Kiritimati in Kiribati (UTC+14) and reaches the last inhabited places, American Samoa and Niue (UTC−11), 25 hours later.
