You can hold your wishes for a happy, healthy, and prosperous 2024 deep in your heart, OR you can have them released high above Times Square at the stroke of midnight on New Year’s Eve with millions of other hopes and dreams from around the world!
It's that one night a year when you can blast messages of love, peace, and happiness into the skies above New York City along with millions of other people's colorful sentiments! How? Organizers of this year’s Times Square New Year celebration once again unveiled the official New Year's Eve Wishing Wall which gives people the chance to write their wishes for 2024 on pieces of confetti.
This unique, once-a-year opportunity is free.
The “wishfetti” will be released from the tallest buildings in Times Square at the stroke of midnight on New Year's Eve during the traditional NYC celebration.
There are two ways to submit New Year wishes:
1. Visit the "Wishing Wall" in person
For people visiting Times Square in-person, the Wishing Wall is located on one of Times Square's Broadway plazas between 45th and 46th Streets, every day until December 29 from 11:00 AM - 8:00 PM.
2. Submit your wish online
Wishes can also be submitted virtually. To participate online, confetti wishes can be uploaded from the Times Square New Year's Eve Virtual Wishing Wall site.
Each wish collected before December 29 via the Wishing Wall in Times Square -- or submitted online before December 28 -- will be printed on a piece of confetti and become part of the 3,000 pounds of confetti released at midnight in Times Square on New Year's Eve! (Any wishes received online after December 28 will be printed out and saved for the 2025 NYE celebration.)
See you on December 31 at Times Square in person, or by tuning in to the Live Webcast. Happy New Year!
