Each year, Times Square welcomes an estimated 26 million visitors each year. In light of this, businesses have opened many new tourist attractions. Therefore, Times Square is definitely a must-have stop for either your New York Christmas experience, or throughout any time of the year.
The first New Year's Eve celebration at Times Square took place in 1904. It involved a fireworks display in honor of the new Times headquarters, and began a tradition that has lasted over a century.
New Year's ceremony actually involving a ball lowering from a pole atop the Times Building for the first time was held in 1907. Now, this annual Times Square New Year event draws an estimated one million people from far and wide, as billions more watch the festivities from all around the world.
Needless to say, our unmatched collection of prints, cards, and souvenirs will transport you to this magical place 365 days a year. Feel free to look around.
