New Year's Eve 2020 celebrations and fireworks from around the world
The USA (Amer. Samoa) is last to change.
Celebrations to mark the start of 2020 are being held around the world, starting with Kiribati (Xmas Island of the Line Islands) at 0900GMT, with New Zealand seeing in the new decade at 1100GMT.

The independent nation of Samoa, near Kiribati, changes over first, whereas American Samoa is last to enter the new year. (The two Samoas are only about 40 miles apart but on opposite sides of the International Date Line).
