Google‘s vibrant New Year’s Eve Doodle ushers in 2025 with a festive design that captures the excitement of new beginnings. The animated logo features bold purple letters against a dark, starry sky, with the central “O” transformed into a ticking clock, counting down to midnight. This playful tribute marks the transition into the new year.

The accompanying message from Google invites users to reflect on the past year while setting their sights on the opportunities ahead: “Bust out your sparkles and finalise your resolutions—today’s Doodle celebrates New Year’s Eve! Here’s to a new year that’s shining with opportunity—just like today’s Doodle! Let the countdown begin.”

On New Year’s Day, Google unveiled another Doodle with a celestial theme: a serene blue background adorned with stars. The central “O” in the Google logo has been replaced by a radiant star, symbolising new beginnings and the endless possibilities the year holds. Sparkling stars enhance the celebratory feel, reminding us of hope and aspirations for 2025.
