我国元旦节由来
中国的元旦,据传说起于三皇五帝之一的颛顼,距今已有5000多年的历史.“元旦”一词最早出现于《晋书》：“颛帝以孟夏正月为元,其实正朔元旦之春”的诗中.南北朝时,南朝文史学家萧子云的《介雅》诗中也有“四季新元旦,万寿初春朝”的记载.宋代吴自牧《梦粱录》卷一“正月”条目：“正月朔日,谓之元旦,俗呼为新年.一岁节序,此为之首.”；汉代崔瑗《三子钗铭》中叫“元正”；晋代庾阐《扬都赋》中称作“元辰”；北齐时的一篇《元会大享歌皇夏辞》中呼为“元春”；唐德宗李适《元日退朝观军仗归营》诗中谓之“元朔”
我国在发掘大汶口文化遗物中,发现一幅太阳从山颠升起,中间云烟缭绕的图画.经考证,这是我国最古老的“旦”字写法.后来,在殷商的青铜器铸铭上,又出现了被简化的“旦”的象形字.“旦”字是以圆圆的太阳来表示的.“日”下面的“一”字表示地平线,意为太阳从地平线上冉冉升起.
中国元旦历来指的是夏历（农历、阴历）正月初一.元是“初”、“始”的意思,旦指“日子”,元旦合称即是“初始的日子”,也就是一年的第一天.在汉语各地方言中有不同叫法,有叫“大年初一”的,有叫“大天初一”的,有叫“年初一”的,一般又叫“正月初一”.
正月初一从哪日算起,在汉武帝以前也是很不统一的.因此,历代的元旦月、日也并不一致.夏朝的夏历以孟喜月（元月）为正月,商朝的殷历以腊月（十二月）为正月,周朝的周历以冬月（十一月）为正月.秦始皇统一中国后,又以阳春月（十月）为正月,即十月初一为元旦.从汉武帝起,才规定孟喜月（元月）为正月,把孟喜月的第一天（夏历的正月初一）称为元旦,一直沿用到清朝末年.但这是夏历,亦即农历或阴历,还不是我们今天所说的元旦.
公元1911年,孙中山领导的辛亥革命,推翻了满清的统治,建立了中华民国.各省都督代表在南京开会,决定使用公历,把农历的正月初一叫做“春节”,把公历的1月1日叫做“元旦”.不过当时并未正式公布和命名. 为了“行夏正,所以顺农时,从西历,所以便统计”,民国元年决定使用公历（实际使用是1912年）,并规定阳历（公历）1月1日为“新年”,但并不叫“元旦”.
今天所说的“元旦”,是新中国成立前夕的公元1949年9月27日,第一届中国人民政治协商会议,在决定建立中华人民共和国的同时,也决定采用世界通用的公元纪年法,即是我们所说的阳历.
在当代,元旦指公元纪年的岁首第一天.为了区别农历和阳历两个新年,又鉴于农历二十四节气中的“立春”恰在农历新年的前后,因此便把农历正月初一改称为“春节”,阳历1月1日定为新年的开始“元旦”,并列入了法定假日成为全国人民的欢乐节日.
最早的元旦由来 大约在公元前五万年左右,古埃及人已由游牧改为农耕,定居在尼罗河两岸,他们的农业收成与尼罗河是否发生洪水有很大关系.古埃及人从长期的观察中发现,尼罗河泛滥的时间是有规律的,他们就把这个时间每次都记录在竹竿上,从中得知两次泛滥时间之间大约相隔 3 65天；同时还发现,当尼罗河初涨的潮头来到今天开罗城附近的时候,也正好是太阳与天狼星同时从地平线上升起的时候.
于是,古埃及人便把这一天定为一年的开始.这是"元旦"最早的由来.
西方元旦由来
西元前46年，古罗马凯撒把这一天定为西历新年的开始，为了祝福Janus，这位罗马神话中的门神，Janus后来也演化为英文一月January这个词。原本以为教皇把耶稣诞生年作为西元元年，西元一月一日也和耶稣有关联，现在看来并非如此。可能依照西方普遍信仰基督教，还应该是12月25日耶诞日为过年，所以西方的新年没有耶诞隆重。
元旦是庆贺新年的开始，欢度元旦可说是世界各国各地区的普遍习俗。
现在，世界上大多数国家把每年1月1日作为元旦，由于世界各国所处的经度位置不同，各国的时间也不同，因此，“元旦”的日期也有不同。如大洋洲的岛国汤加位于日界线的西侧，它是世界上最先开始的一天的地方，也是最先庆祝元旦的国家。而位于日界线东侧的西萨摩亚则是世界上最迟开始新的一天的地方。
按公历计，我国是世界上第12个开始新年的国家。各个国家由于其历史、文化、宗教信仰、民族习惯不同，也都有自己不同的庆祝。不过，这也使得这个世界多姿多彩，更显地域、民族特色了。
