Sydney Opera House together with Sydney Harbor Bridge will cast a dramatic setting for New Years Eve fireworks. Let’s watch the spectacular 2025 NYE firework displays in Sydney with program as below:
Pre-show entertainment at 6:00 PM
Prepare to be thrilled as flying ace Matt Hall masterminds an aerial display just for NYE. At 6.50pm, a tug boat takes centre stage at Sydney Harbour with a stunning water display, before Matt Hall’s return at 8pm.
Pylon projections at 8:00 PM
The Harbour Bridge pylons transform into massive canvases as their surfaces light up with full-size images and videos created specially for the event. The countdowns to the fireworks displays will also appear on the pylons, so be sure to keep your eye out!
Welcome to Country at 8:40 PM
This ceremony reflects our respect for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples, their heritage and living culture. Eucalyptus smoke is released over the water, cleansing Sydney Harbour of any bad spirits. Spectacular images on the bridge pylons celebrate Eora country.
Family fireworks display at 9:00 PM
The first fireworks allow our littlest spectators, who may nod off a little earlier, the chance to see a fantastic display. Look out for rockets firing from 4 barges and the Sydney Harbour Bridge. Fireworks director Fortunato Foti will pay tribute to the 200th year of the Royal Botanic Garden and 100 years of Taronga Zoo.
Harbour of Light Parade at 9:15 PM
Sydney Harbour will be illuminated with up to 60 ships gliding across the water, enchanting spectators of all ages. Each vessel will be decorated with cool white ropelight, dazzling the crowds and adding to the unique choreography as they dance in the harbour.
Midnight Fireworks display
At the stroke of midnight, we celebrate the start of the new year in spectacular fashion. The 12 minute display features a huge range of pyrotechnic effects from 7 barges in the harbour, 4 sails of the Sydney Opera House, and firing points from across the Sydney Harbour Bridge. Tune in to the synchronised simulcast on 104.1 2Day FM.
Enjoy your New Years Eve in Sydney!
