    We have champagne, good enough I guess, I have some herring also.
    As Bundana said. I think that a standard New Years party starts with the queens speech to the nation at 6 pm. Then great fine food and the best wines from the cellar. At 11.30 it’s the sketch of the 90th birthday and then champagne and fireworks to celebrate the new year.

    So fairly standard I think.

    Akvavit and smørrebrød is reserved for Christmas lunches through December.

      I wonder, if the 90th birthday sketch is a New Years tradition only in parts of Europe - or elsewhere as well?

        Good to know! I read about the Akvavit and smorrebrod and thought to myself at the time: "man that sounds great!"
