With my Internet radio I will be listening to 4 countries let the New Year in and here is what I've chosen.

11am - New Zealand
1pm - Sydney Australia
Then I'm busy till about 7pm so can't listen to any.
10pm - Cyprus or Egypt
Midnight - The UK of Course.

What would be the best stations?

That's a really interesting idea. I used to watch the TWiT (This Week in Tech) network when they did 24 hours of New Year - basically celebrating New Years around the globe.

It would be interesting to do something similar but going round the world with radio stations (ideally English language!). Perhaps we can start a list of stations!

I've decided on the following dance stations to see if they do anything interesting.

New Zealand - George FM 96.6
Sydney - Raw FM 87.6
Cyprus - Mix FM 102.3

As for that last hour with the UK I have decided it will be a DAB station but not sure weather Kiss, Capital UK or Capital Xtra will be best.

For the first time I've chosen Kiss this year to let UK New Year in.

We always fancied a drinking game of drinks from each region as they hit NYE. This list would be quite invaluable!
