New Years Eve Dec 31, 2025

Three… two… one… wait—hold that countdown. It"s not New Year"s yet, but the Oberbaum Bridge already feels as if Berlin in Germany hit its "celebrate" button ahead of time. On this night, the bridge transforms from a simple river crossing into a runway where this city taxis toward midnight, engines humming, fireworks warming up and the crowd collectively practicing its "Happy New Year!" voice.
