New Year's Eve Boat Hire

New Year's Eve in Australia is a major celebration marked by fireworks, parties and festivities. Sydney, in particular, is famous for its extravagant New Year's Eve fireworks display over the iconic Sydney Harbour Bridge and the Sydney Opera House. The event attracts both locals and tourists from around the world. Prestige Harbour Cruises offers private boat hire as well as individual ticketed cruises. These cruises provide a stunning vantage point to enjoy the festivities while floating on the water.

The fireworks in Sydney are usually divided into two main displays: the family-friendly fireworks at 9:00 pm and the midnight fireworks to welcome in the New Year. These displays are synchronised with music and are known for their creativity and spectacular visuals. Other places across Australia also celebrate New Year's Eve with firework displays in major cities including Melbourne, Brisbane, Perth, and Adelaide.
