The clock counts down to midnight on 1 January in your own time zone, so it reaches zero at the same moment as the fireworks where you are.

Tap Full screen and put it on a TV or projector for the last minutes of the year. At midnight it switches to Happy New Year, and the next day it starts counting to the following New Year.

Everything runs inside your browser. Nothing is uploaded and nothing is stored on our server, so it also works for private material.

## How it works

1. **Open the page** The clock counts to midnight in your time zone.
