In short:

A remote community on the borders of three states in Australia will mark New Year’s Eve three times tonight.

The event has been running at Cameron Corner for more than 20 years.

The triple celebration is ensured by the differing time zones in the three states on New Year’s Eve.

    Also, there’s three three-way time-offset junctions in Europe (at this time of year), but they all have ‘hard’ international borders. If the junctions were in the Schengen Area, then it’d be like Cameron Corner, but I don’t think you can legally walk freely between countries (and time zones) at these three points, without using an official point of entry (I might be wrong about that, though).
