New Year's Day is not a traditional festival in my country, so different countries celebrate New Year's Day in different ways.
U.K.
On the day before New Year's Day, every household must have wine in the bottle and meat in the cupboard. The British believe that if there is no leftover wine and meat, there will be poverty in the coming year. In addition, the custom of "drawing well water" during the New Year is popular in the UK. People strive to be the first to draw water, believing that the first person to draw water is a happy person and the water he draws is auspicious water.

This is their traditional way of saying goodbye to the old year and welcoming the new year.
