Fireworks, champagne, wild parties, theatre, lights, the New Year’s Eve celebration in Sydney is shaping up to be grander than ever. After restricted celebrations for the past couple of years, we are ready to be on track once again with a show-stopping selection of events and celebrations. Pulling in over a million revellers every year from all parts of the planet, it is absolutely mandatory that you plan way ahead and decide on where you gonna be spending the final day of the year. This year, there’s a whole lot of different activities and experiences to look forward to, so if you haven’t made plans already, check these out.

Soar into 2023 with New Year’s Eve Cruises

The NYE cruises are the undisputed favourite among the locals and the number one way to welcome in the New Year, in a city like Sydney. Without a question, the major drawcard of the NYE celebrations is the Family and Midnight Fireworks show, which will have the harbour turn into an extravagant spectacle of 3D-like lights, vivid colours, and dynamic patterns. The NYE cruises are one of the highly-recommended experiences during this time around as they offer unbeatable views of both the fireworks shows. Not just that! On board these entertaining cruises, you get to spend quality time with your family, feasting together on a lavish dinner spread, drinking premium Aussie beverages and much more. Some of them even have live entertainment to keep you busy till the countdown!

High above the ground

Wanna feel the ‘main character’ vibes on the last day of the year? After a long snooze due to the pandemic, all the hotels and waterfront joints near Sydney Harbour are going all out this year, offering exciting NYE packages to the public. There’s nothing like watching over the harbour and the city skyline from several hundred feet above the ground, raising a toast and welcoming the New Year. Zephyr, located on the 12th level of the Hyatt Regency Hotel offers exactly that. Watching dusk from here can be roughly described as something straight out of the new Todd Philipps movies. Topping it off with world-class seafood, beef sliders, delicate desserts and one of the finest selection of spirit and liquor menus, you got yourself a night to remember for years!

Islands never go out of style

How about a party on an island in the middle of Sydney? When the fireworks go off from all parts of the city at midnight, the dark blue waters surrounding Shark Island turn into a psychedelic hue of purple and pink. The ticketed event scheduled here is set to kick off by 6:15pm and you can warm up the night and relax as the DJs drop the latest hits of both the Australian and International charts. While you can purchase food and drinks on site, you are always free to bring your own food and non-alcoholic drinks. The Shark island dance floor will be open shortly after your arrival and that’s when the NYE vibes really get going.

A tip straight out of heaven

Alright lemme let you in on a lil’ insider knowledge. You don’t always need a fancy venue or attend a glitzy party to enjoy the finest views of Sydney’s iconic fireworks display. If you work in Sydney and your office has a rooftop, it’ll do the job! You may even end up enjoying better views than most harbourside hotels and gardens! That’s not all! If you have a friend or a relative living in the same vicinity, you can call ‘em up and cook up a session! There are also a couple of unconfirmed free vantage points around the harbour, but I guess I’ll save that for some other time! Until then, cheers!
