What it’s like to be in Sydney on New Year’s Eve!

Sydney New Year's Eve Fireworks Cruises

Celebrating New Year’s Eve in Sydney is, without a doubt, a special experience! With the spectacular 9pm and 12am Sydney New Year Fireworks putting up quite the show and painting the sky with vibrant colours, everyone’s gathered together to celebrate the end of the year and the start of something new. With over 1 million people gathered to watch the  Sydney New Year Fireworks, a New Year’s Eve cruise along Sydney Harbour is undoubtedly the best way to catch the show! With a handful of harbour-centric venues gearing up for the festivities with epic New Year’s Eve parties, it’s not difficult to get spoilt by choice. If you’re looking to escape the crowds, it’s imperative that you break the bank a little- the New Year comes around only once a year, after all! 

The theme of this year’s Sydney New Year Fireworks is yet to be announced, but last year’s ‘Pulse of Sydney’ display was a force to be reckoned with! If one looks past the minor typo welcoming 2018 (didn’t we all get enough of THAT year?!), it was quite the impressive spectacle! The harbour city truly comes alive on New Year’s Eve with a colourful sea of people, the illuminated summer skies lit up with spectacular fireworks and its reflections off the roving waters. A sight to behold! The annual Sydney New Year Fireworks display is the epitome of year-end celebration- being the first of the world’s major cities to ring in the New Year- and it does this honour complete justice. 

So what do people in Sydney actually do on New Year’s Eve?

With Sydney being a frontrunner of New Year’s Eve festivities around Australia, the Sydney Harbour is the star attraction and focal point of the buzz for locals and tourists. There numerous city-wide parades, parties, music and entertainment shows put in place to ring in 2020 right! Celebrities frequent a few locales and parties as hosts or guests of honour for large-scale New Year’s Eve events. Themed parties are quite common too- and this year a Gatsby theme welcoming the ‘roaring 20s’are definitely going to done to death! 

Being a superior vantage point and a well-rounded all-inclusive experience to enjoy the Sydney New Year fireworks display, New Year’s Eve cruises are of-late a crowd-favourite! Among the spectrum of Sydney NYE cruises out on the harbour to celebrate the end of the year, a popular choice is Magistic cruises. Enjoy an up-close ringside view of the 9pm and 12am fireworks display lighting up the skies on this 7hr 15min catamaran cruise. Indulge in a 5-course deluxe seated and served menu alongside premium beverages and enjoy the live band, DJ and dancing! All at a fixed price with no hidden charges! 

There are some people who choose to stay home on New Year’s Eve watching the live televised version of the Sydney New Year fireworks, all while enjoying a summer appropriate BBQ with their friends and family. 

There’s no right or wrong way to celebrate New Year’s Eve- just have a blast!
