Dazzling Firework Displays Around the World

New Year’s Eve – London, England

Another spectacular New Year’s Eve fireworks display is held every year in London, England. Organizers set off fireworks all along the banks of the Thames River, with the centerpiece being the fireworks set off from the London Eye. Every year, this famous landmark is turned into a circular platform for some of the world’s most colorful and innovative fireworks.

Recently, event organizers have tried to make this a complete sensory experience by releasing scented confetti that’s timed along with the fireworks. If you want a ticket to the event, you’ll have to score one from the Mayor of London’s website, and although a ticket guarantees you entry into your viewing location, you’ll need to arrive early to get the best spots.
