Across the New Year, Costco's opening time is adjusted! These places are closed on New Year's Day, remember!!!!

January 1 of each year is the New Year's Day, which is celebrated in most countries and regions of the world and one of the federal holidays in the United States. On New Year's Eve (NYE for short), people usually hold celebrations to welcome the New Year. Near midnight, people will count down the New Year and set off fireworks and salutes to celebrate the arrival of the new year.

The most representative celebration of the American New Year's Eve is the "Ball Drop" ceremony in Times Square, New York. Starting at 23:59:00, the crystal ball slowly dropped from the top and reached the bottom at 00:00:00; Many big cities also hold New Year fireworks shows and other celebrations.
