Getty Ring in the New Year on the West Coast.
If you’re wanting to ring in the New Year on the West Coast, it may be more difficult to find broadcasts and countdowns since most cater to the East Coast or even the Central time zone. But there are options for New Year’s Eve that cater to those who are in the Pacific time zone and celebrating just a little later than everyone else. We have countdown timers and live stream options listed for you below.
Live Countdown Timers for the West Coast
Here are some countdown timers for the West Coast that you can use. The video above shows countdowns from different places around the world, including San Francisco, California.
The video below shows a streaming countdown for each time zone, including the West Coast. The next closest time zone will show in the video below as each one approaches.
The next timer, which opens up in a separate tab from this link, is from Countdown Online Clock and you can set whatever type of background you want for it, whether it’s confetti, a New Year’s Party Scene, Times Square, or another festive background. It will automatically display a timer matching whatever time zone you are in.
This next countdown timer from Time and Date also detects your location. Or you can visit a map here and create a New Year’s countdown based on your location on the map.
