Televised-only New Year's Eve celebrations are held near the Brandenburg Gate in Berlin, Germany.

The German capital's kickoff of the New Year, as in the previous instance, was a more toned-down affair than the one traditionally held, with no public audience allowed for its stage show and fireworks, the latter planned as a much smaller version than usual to avoid attracting non-socially-distanced crowds.

A broadcast-only edition replaced the larger party, which usually attracts around 60,000 visitors, due to restrictions amidst the ongoing Covid-19 pandemic.
