The famous fireworks display launched from Sydney Harbour Bridge and nearby landmarks is called Sydney New Year's Eve.
Sydney New Year's Eve is a large annual public celebration centered on Sydney Harbour in Australia. Its midnight fireworks use the Harbour Bridge, barges, and other structures as launch points, creating a display visible from many parts of the harbor and city. The event is broadcast internationally because Australia's time zone allows it to appear early in the global sequence of major New Year celebrations.
The program normally includes several moments before midnight, including an evening fireworks display designed for families and a larger midnight show. Harbor vessels and viewing areas can be subject to strict safety and access rules because of the enormous crowds.
The event is sometimes casually called the “Sydney fireworks,” but Sydney New Year's Eve is the official event name used for the broader celebration. It should not be confused with Vivid Sydney, an annual festival of light, music, and ideas held in a different season.
