New Year’s Eve – VRChat’s biggest event of the year – is again upon us! [previewyoutube=NpYqAuH4s6c;full][/previewyoutube] Once the event is live, you'll be able to join in by launching VRChat and finding the VRChat Square world in your Worlds menu at the top! There are two versions -- one is normal capacity at 16 for a comfy event, and a MAXIMUM capacity version at 40 if you want to bring in all your friends! The event will start at the first New Year in the world -- [url=https://everytimezone.com/s/0d0be097]UTC +14[/url], the earliest time zone on Earth! [b]Check your Worlds menu[/b] to find the "New Years 2023" category! Click on it to see both worlds! Hop in an instance with your friends, or spin a new one up! Ring in 2023 with your friends as it arrives across the world! We’ve given our New Year’s Eve world a brand new coat of paint, as well as invited in a brand new set of community creators to make it extra special! They’ve brought in their food trucks, stocked their booths, and helped hang their billboards all around VRChat Square. There’s a ton to explore – you’ll probably see a few familiar faces, as well as some brand new ones! (And don’t forget to [b]keep an eye out for new Groups to join![/b]) And of course, there’s also the brand new [b]VRChat Entertainment Network[/b], presented on the [b]Tundra Stage[/b], which will be streaming DJ sets from some of the most talented performers in the VRChat community throughout the day. Check the lineup below!

If you're curious to see who's got a video lined up, check out the [url=https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/u/1/d/e/2PACX-1vQexhPAbxdNMMSywLv8I6-Q8PDMMcW1xiSZxe_5v-7APlzEdh8CZ4V6hBproZm8P0GNMzIaHx1CxfHX/pubhtml?gid=1902268836&single=true]schedule[/url]. In VRChat Square, the ball drops for every timezone from [url=https://everytimezone.com/s/0d0be097]UTC+14[/url] through [url=https://everytimezone.com/s/ce17e102]UTC-12[/url], with fireworks for everyone along the way! And yep, we've got the half-hour ones. And the three-quarter hour ones! ... and yes, we accounted for ongoing daylight-savings offsets. Wow, time zones are confusing. (PS: The best place to watch the ball drop might be on top of the tower – and if you’re a fan of Hololive, you might see some familiar faces up there…) We hope you can come and join the VRChat community as we celebrate yet another year gone by, and look forward to the future!
