The New Year in Ukraine is regarded as a family day. The traditional meals are an essential part of the celebrations. Among them is a unique dish called “Olivier,” while others include more conventional dishes such as fried geese, chicken and beef, and various salads. Rounds of drinks are shared. Champagne is common, but wine is often the preference.
In the past Ukrainians celebrated the New Year on what is regarded as “the old New Year,” which falls on January 14. In order to be part of global celebrations, the date was moved to January 1.
