if you have them in your area.

That said, I don't mind celebrating New Year a couple of times a year but don't really need to adopt a tradition that's suppose to be about getting a year older myself

I did enjoy a multi-country festival and like much of it -- interesting to see the Hanbok and some of the traditional dances. Must say though, the Polynesian dances were perhaps the most erotic (but a bit creepy with how young they start the girls dancing!)  

One really sad part was the Japanese dance -- possibly the best music and voice I heard the whole day; no one of the dancers was actually Japanese. All were white; too bad.

Some very good martial arts demonstrations as well.

Looking forward to the fireworks tomorrow.
