Explanation:

Año Nuevo is New Year. Of course, it is celebrated on January 1, every year.
Nochevieja lasts all night. The family meets since about 8:00 p.m. - 10:00 p.m., although the time is not restrictive. The idea is that the family spends the night together waiting for it to be 12:00 pm; listening to music, eating, talking, playing, laughing, having a great time, sharing family traditions. At 12:00 p.m., one by one, all people hug and wish for a happy new year. The party continues after 12:00 pm and people share a big feast after 12:00 p.m.
The next day (just some hours later) is Año Nuevo, January 1st. There is always another meeting during the day, in which people continue celebrating and wishing each other a happy new year.
This is a great party!
Año Nuevo is an official international holiday, celebrated in all Western countries.
