In the past two years, the New Year’s Eve celebrations at the Brandenburg Gate had been canceled due to the corona pandemic. This time, under the motto “Celebrate at the Gate”, many visitors can welcome the New Year – but fewer than before.
For security reasons, only a few thousand people are allowed to be present on the closed off Pariser Platz on the west side of the gate. Access is only possible with free admission tickets, which can be ordered online from December 1st. Admission for the public is on December 31 from 6 p.m. to 7.30 p.m. There will be no New Year’s fireworks. However, optical effects with projections on the facade of the Brandenburg Gate and a light show with color games are to be shown.
