ICE HOTEL NEW YEAR'S EVE 1999, Kiruna

Sweden's Lapland is home to one of the most unusual inns in the world; it is chiseled out of solid ice, the melts each spring and is rebuilt the following fall. On New Year's Eve 1999, this igloo will become a global hotspot when it hosts a party to welcome the millennium. Guests will dance and swill vodka to keep from freezing, eventually retiring to their reindeer skin-covered ice-beds to catch a few winks in the first hours of 2000. Make sure to stay warm . . . or it might be another thousand years before the next crew of millennium revelers discovers your well-preserved body! (Sweden Scantours)

Kardis, Sweden

The Millennium will be celebrated in Kardis, Sweden as follows:

Dance and fireworks on the ice of the frozen river which forms the frontier between Sweden and Finland. This is north of the Arctic Circle, so the river will be frozen to the bottom. Parling space for a few hundred cars - on the river. The time zone runs down the middle of the river, so there will be two firework displays and two countdowns etc. Two Millennia!

Guests may fly in via Rovaniemi, where the Father Christmas trips go to.
