People in Arctic Bay celebrate New Year’s by setting off fireworks and organizing a vehicle parade on the ice and through the community. The parade began at Uluksat Point. From there, participants drove in an “S” pattern toward the community. Then they parked in a line out on the ice near the shoreline before moving on to drive through Arctic Bay.
