Are there any special event/projects related to the end of the year or beginning of the new year in your country?

Many places there is fireworks.

Are those events consider/manage like a project?

In Sydney, the New Year fire works celebration is the major event that takes a lot of planning and co-ordination between a number of entities. These include (but not limited) to the City of Sydney Council, Police and Emergency Services, Transport for New South Wales including Transport Management Centre, Public Transport (trains, buses, ferries and light rail), taxis, NSW Roads and Maritime Services and the media; in addition to businesses. A quick look at the website would provide an idea https://www.sydneynewyearseve.com
Here is also a link to the 12:00 fire works. Happy New Year! https://youtu.be/KKtyz6F8oIw
Thanks Amany,

The links are interesting,

Is it a project or is it a process?

For example, the annual New Year's Eve ball drop in New York City could be considered an operational process as the degree of uncertainty should have dropped after the first dozen or so times they've done it. Yes, every year they might tweak a variable here or there, but they are still following a very well established "playbook".

Kiron,

You are right some are a repeat with a twist from year to year. Some are a new team, a full rework, since not much from previous year can be reuse.
