Where<\/strong>: Madeira, Portugal<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2728 Perfect for<\/strong>: Groups of friends in search of massive fireworks
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Topping our list of best New Year’s celebrations in Europe is the coastal town of Madeira<\/a><\/strong>. During the last few days of December, the quiet harborside streets of Madeira start to awaken with signs of an amazing party to come.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The waterfront streets of Funchal<\/a><\/strong>, just days ago shrouded in the peace of off-season, suddenly burst into life in what is recognized to be one of the largest fireworks displays in the world<\/strong>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cruise ships docked by the harbor blow their whistles to accompany the fiery spectacle, as ancient church bells echo through the narrow streets. Get down to the dock before midnight strikes on a hop-on hop-off bus in Fuchal<\/strong><\/a> and see the pyrotechnic performance from the shore. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you want your ears to ring to a different tune, Avenida Arriaga<\/strong> will play host to orchestras, folk bands, and choirs. And, if you are sticking around Madeira beyond New Year’s Eve, the festivities trickle into January<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
