One other huge celebration in Taipei is the one on New Year Eve.

Every year, thousands of people will gather in front of the Taipei City Hall to celebrate the beginning of a new year.

Every time, there will be many famous singers who perform on the stage that is set up for the New Year Celebration.

The performance usually starts out around eight o ’ clock and continues until midnight.

Artists and dancers will perform throughout the night and it is just like a concert.

Then, thirty minutes before midnight, the Taipei governor and some Taipei politicians will come up the stage and count down with the people.

Then, when the clock reaches midnight, there will be firework at Taipei 101 and every year since, the firework has last longer than the year before.
