What country is the last to bring in the New Year?
What country is the last to bring in the New Year? The last inhabited places to celebrate are the islands of Niue and American Samoa to the southwest of Kiribati in the South Pacific. The day technically ends an hour later in the U.S. territories of Baker Island and Howland Island, but both are uninhabited, Eggert says.
Which country wakes up last?
Baker Island and Howland. Located just barely north of the Equator, Baker Island and Howland are both uninhabited and the last place on earth to ring in the new year.
