If you want a luxurious, grand celebration, you’ll be spoilt for choice in Macau. You can celebrate with family, friends, or even someone special in so many ways.

Macao Countdown Concert

Music and fireworks will return to the New Year festivities as Macau welcomes 2025. The New Year’s Eve Concert will take place in the evening at Sai Van Lake Square starting at 10 p.m., followed by the fireworks display at midnight.

To emphasise Macau’s role as a platform for exchange between China and Portuguese-speaking countries, this year’s concert will feature Brazilian singer Lia Sophia, who will close the show with a golden key, performing songs with danceable and contagious rhythms.

As we enter the new year of 2025, artists and the public will gather for the countdown to the sound of dazzling fireworks launched from the Macau Tower, lighting up the city’s New Year sky.
