How do Germans celebrate New Year's Eve?
New Year's Eve is traditionally one of the big party nights in Germany. Especially younger people will sometimes plan the night months in advance. The idea is usually to go to a big party, where the party-goers will go outside and watch the fireworks at midnight, before returning back to the party. These parties will typically be comparatively expensive (a 40 Euros cover charge, usually including some drinks, is not unusual) and involve a lot of alcohol consumption.
The more family friendly version of a typical German New Year's celebration is organizing a more modestly sized party at ones' home. Typical activities involve melting lead blocks (Bleigießen), the form of which is supposed to be able to tell you what the year is going to be like for you, or cooking fondue. At midnight, everyone goes outside and lights fireworks (which is legal in Germany, including bottle rockets).
