If 2020 can be remembered for anything other than COVID-19 it would be online events and Zoom parties. This was the year everything went digital.
From meetings and exhibitions to festivals and concerts, we were literally living on the web all year round. And it’s likely that these coming months won’t be any different. With big parties prohibited across the globe and gatherings being limited, all NYE plans have been reduced to at-home-stays.
Luckily, a slew of virtual live concerts and events are coming to our screens in celebration of the new year. Featuring major stars like Justin Bieber to Dua Lipa, we’ve rounded up the best online events to stream on NYE.
