The two states are ostensibly in the same time zone, but New South Wales observes daylight saving, and Queensland doesn't. That means the twin towns have managed to carve out a peculiar niche as somewhere you can celebrate New Year's Eve twice. Start in Tweed Heads, then stroll over into Coolangatta, and the party starts again an hour later.
