New Year's Eve was another name by which 31st December was known. As the last day of the year — at least according to some Earth calendars — it was often a time for celebrations and parties, generally centered around midnight, when the last few seconds of a year could be experienced. Though the parties which occurred on this date were often raucous, some individuals might have marked the occasion with a somber reflection on the passage of time.
It was not a well-known holiday in the Second Great and Bountiful Human Empire, as Sara Kingdom did not recognize it. (DW: The Daleks' Master Plan)
