Let's look at some countries.

Italy.

Italians used to throw old junk through the windows on the New Year's night to get rid of troubles of the old year.

Japan.

In Japan, on the New Year, you can hear 108 bell strokes for different vices.

There are greed, stupidity, anger, and others.

Once the New Year arrives, Japanese laugh out loud as laughter is believed to bring good luck.

Venezuela.

New Year has to be met wearing yellow underwear as it is believed to bring good luck.

Venezuelans write down all their wishes.

When midnight is close, they gather their wish notes and burn them.

France.

There is an old belief that noise chases bad spirits away, so French cities are extremely noisy on New Year's night.

The French believe that the first person to enter the house symbolizes what that year will be like.

Philippines.

Children in Philippines have to jump 10 times at the New Year's midnight if they want to grow tall.

Denmark.

The Danish collect dishes for the whole year and then throw at their friend's doors.

If a Dane finds a lot of broken plates at his door on the New Year morning, he is happy.

His life is good and he has a lot of friends.
