About
Sydney Harbour hosts what is widely considered the world’s finest New Year’s Eve celebration. As the first major city to ring in the new year, Sydney launches two fireworks displays — a 9pm family show and the spectacular midnight show — over the Harbour Bridge and Opera House, visible from vantage points across the city and watched by over a billion people worldwide on television. The 9-minute midnight display is a masterpiece of pyrotechnics choreographed to music, transforming the harbour into a theatre of light.
