New Year’s is the celebration of the beginning of a new calendar year. New Year’s Eve is celebrated on December 31, the last night of the Gregorian calendar year. New Year’s Day is on January 1, marking the first day of the new year.
New Year’s celebrations began in Mesopotamia around 2000 BCE. Julius Caesar set January 1 as New Year’s Day in 46 BCE, honoring Janus. After shifts during the Middle Ages, Pope Gregory XIII’s 1582 reform fixed January 1 as the start of the year.
One of the key reasons for celebrating New Year's in Canada is the opportunity it provides for people to reflect on the past year and look forward to the possibilities of the year ahead.
