The traditional prayers for the last day of the year are taken from the 1944 Layman's Ritual.
For New Year's day the Veni, Creator Spiritus is said.
Both are indulgenced.

Seconded. I didn't even know this was a thing. Thanks.

For those new to tradition, before Vat II there was always a Midnight Mass on New Year's Eve.
The church was packed and the smell of alcohol was evident...but they still showed up.
It started at 11:30 P.M. with the prayers I've posted above and for 1/2 an hour reparation was made for our sins of the past year during exposition of the Blessed Sacrament.
At midnight, Mass started off the New Year and I don't remember if the Te Deum was sung before or after.
Until the 1990's, there was a Polish NO priest in our city still offering this devotion but I think he was told to stop it shortly before he retired.
I've checked a couple church bulletins from the SSPX and the FSSP and both (some) are offering the Te Deum with a Holy Hour but no Mass nor devotions of reparation.
Are we really being offered tradition in it's fullness?
Perhaps our ex-seminarians here could shed some light on what was explained to them about this devotion.

Just checked LatinMass.live and tradition is offering only two devotions for midnight. Where are all the trad priests?

Thank you so much!

If not, then we carry on at home with Te Deum during Matins until 28th January and then pick up again on 31st March. Similarly for everyone without access to a Tuesday observance this past week for the Feast of the Holy Name: there are litanies and reparations (https://www.catholicharboroffaithandmorals.com/Holy Name.html) and other devotions to be said on one's own or among family and friends.
The math may not add up anywhere near to a plenary as it could liturgically under the usual conditions, but we can still do what's possible! :incense:

I agree for those of us who experienced the fullness of tradition but what are converts and young people being offered?

Outside the Faith for most of my life, I could say that I'd wished that I'd known as a teenager about Tradition by way of my local parish, but that would be second-guessing Divine Providence. Such are these times.
Meanwhile, if these far less busy threads on CathInfo can help converts and young people towards whatever measure of fullness they can discover on their own, then I'm thankful for it, and I pray that more people out there are able to find it.

Thank you! It saves me from having to look online. I’m not sure who said this, but, “You don’t have to go to Mass if there’s no Mass to go to.”
Pray at home or wherever you are. Use a missal or search for a livestream if possible.
