The city's big free celebration in front of the cathedral. The mayor has said the New Year's concert returns to the square this year; line-up still to be announced.
Milan's main square fills up from early evening with music, food stalls and a giant crowd facing the cathedral façade.
Security checkpoints control entry, so glass bottles and fireworks are not allowed. Metro M1/M3 Duomo usually closes at peak times — walk from Cordusio or San Babila.
After midnight the crowd spills toward the Galleria Vittorio Emanuele II and the bars of Brera.
For the four of us
Arrive by 22:00 and pick a meeting point — phones jam at midnight.
