And because we have had an average of 0.2 cases per day from November, restaurants/bars/clubs are allowed to stay open throughout the night. People are advised not to take cars and use public transport instead, which will also run through the night.

The head of state is expected to oversee and attend the annual New Years Eve festival and pull the lever that drops the giant peach, which, upon hitting the bottom, heralds the New Year. (Do not ask why we use a peach. The peach was a gift from a foreign nation as a sign of goodwill. We have nothing to do with peaches.)
The head of state is also expected to lead the countdown and sing "Auld Lang Syne" during the ceremony, and, overall, attend and provide an air of official ceremony to the festival. He is also expected not to look stupid or go party crazy. Lastly, he is expected, but not mandated, to say the first prayer of the New Year.

The current Chapel, which is really a cathedral or ecclesiastical metropolis for the small TurtleShroomer Rite of the Orthodox Church, was built in 1799 AD after the original burnt down.
Its most distinctive feature was also its newest. The Chapel is large and cubed shaped on the outside, with four onion dome towers on making up each corner, separating its face. All of them were coated entirely in TurtleShroom-mined sapphires. What set it apart, though, was its central onion dome; covered in silver and gold leaf, the shaft tower leading to that dome was five times the height of the actual church and topped with a traditional Orthodox cross.
This dome was modified in 1991 AD so that the dome itself lowered down the shaft like a ball drop in a New Year festival. Though mostly for tourist matters, lowering it made it easy to polish, to clean, or to replace cracks.
Every year, Jonesboro was the center of the party and this Cathedral was the means to ring in the New Year.
At midnight in Jonesboro, the audience falls silent in order for the bells of the largest Baptist church in the country to peal as loud as the thunder. This is the signal to shout "HAPPY NEW YEAR".
TurtleShroomers party by swigging sweet iced tea, soda (Coca-Cola), and water all night long. They pack the casinoes, the amusement parks, the restaurants, and the churches and enjoy good clean fun. Families gather around the radio (or the television if they are lucky) or gather in worship.
Of course, there is no alcohol in TurtleShroomer parties, at least not legally.
Between about one and two o'clock in the morning, the Spiritual Advisor of TurtleShroom leads the nation in prayer, followed by the Kings of TurtleShroom that are Christian.
Most festivities end at 2:00 AM, especially in rural areas, because the farmers have to get up at dawn (or sooner) to do their jobs.
