Which Australian landmark is crossed by the midnight fireworks during Sydney’s famous New Year’s Eve celebration?

Sydney’s famous New Year’s Eve fireworks are staged around and across the Sydney Harbour Bridge.

The bridge forms the visual centre of the celebration, with fireworks launched from its arch and roadway while additional displays appear around Sydney Harbour. The Sydney Opera House is also a major part of the view, but it is not the landmark named in this answer.

Sydney’s location near the International Date Line means its midnight celebration is widely watched as one of the first major televised New Year events each year. The harbour setting combines illuminated boats, city lights, and large aerial effects visible from many vantage points.

The fireworks are planned by the City of Sydney and are generally divided into several displays, including an earlier family-oriented show and the main midnight event. Weather, safety rules, and crowd controls can affect the program, so individual years may differ in detail.
