In Brighton, England, thousands of people gathered in the streets to participate in the “bell burning” parade to celebrate the arrival of the winter solstice.
The Brighton “Burning the Clocks” was founded in 1994 by “One Sky”, the largest art charity in the southeast of the United Kingdom, aiming to resist the over-commercialized Christmas.
The crowd gathered at the seaside, and everyone counted down together. The huge lantern clock was burning in the flames, and the beautiful fireworks were blooming in the sky of Brighton. People made new year’s wishes in succession.
