For many people, that means watching  a New Year’s Eve live stream of concerts, parades, and fireworks occurring across the world.

You don’t have to be physically present in another city or country to indulge in the festivities. That’s what the wonders of modern tech are for. You don’t even need cable — which is a relief to those who’ve already cut the cord. Ensure you have a decent internet connection, preferably three to 15 Mbps, and grab a device like your smartphone, smart TV or computer. The last thing you need is your internet cutting out before the ball drops. Check out these ways to watch New Year’s Eve live streams at-home and free of charge.
