You can hold your wishes for a happy, healthy, and prosperous New Year deep in your heart, OR you can have them launched into the skies above Times Square on New Year’s Eve with millions of other hopes and dreams from around the world!
How? Organizers of this year’s Times Square New Year celebration recently unveiled the official New Year's Eve Wishing Wall which gives people the chance to write their wishes for 2023 on pieces of confetti.
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 your 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 43rd and 47th Streets, every day until December 29 from 11:00 AM - 8:00 PM (not available on Christmas Day, December 25).
2. Submit your wish online
Wishes can also be submitted virtually for free. To participate online, confetti wishes can be shared at the Times Square New Year's Eve Virtual Wishing Wall site, at event cosponsor Planet Fitness's website, or on Twitter and Instagram using the hashtag #ConfettiWish.
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!
See you on December 31 at Times Square in person, or by tuning in to the live TV presentation or live Webcast. Happy New Year!
