“元”有始之意,“旦”指天明的时间,也通指白天.元旦,便是一年开始的第一天.“元旦”一词,最早出自南朝梁人萧子云《介雅》诗：“四气新元旦,万寿初今朝.”宋代吴自牧《梦梁录》卷一“正月”条目：“正月朔日,谓之元旦,俗呼为新年.
我国历代元旦的月日并不一致.夏代在正月初一,商代在十二月初一,周代在十一月初一,秦始皇统一六国后,又以十月初一日为元旦,自此历代相沿未改（《史记》）.汉武帝太初元年时,司马迁创立了“太初历”,这才又以正月初一为元旦,和夏代规定一样,所以又称“夏历”,一直沿用到辛亥革命.中华民国建立,孙中山为了“行夏正,所以顺农时；从西历,所以便统计”,定正月初一（元旦）为春节,而以西历（公历）1月1日为新年.
在当代,元旦指公元纪年的岁首第一天.自西历传入我国以后,元旦一词便专用于新年,传统的旧历年则称春节.
而在此之前,元旦一直是指农历岁首第一天的.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.1949年9月27日,中国人民政治协商会议第一界全体会议决议：“中华人民共和国纪年采用公元纪年法”,即是我们所说的阳历,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”,阳历一月一日定为“元旦”,至此,元旦才成为全国人民的欢乐节日.
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.在我国,还列入了国定假日.我国和世界上大多数国家、地区采用公历纪年法,把1月1日定为新年的开始,称作“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.
