Sydney New Year’s Eve is one of the most visually exciting events in the world and gains international attention for its spectacular Midnight Fireworks display set on Sydney Harbour and featuring the iconic Sydney Harbour Bridge.
There are public vantage points around Sydney Harbour stretching along 65 kilometres of foreshore land. Media are welcome to attend Sydney New Year’s Eve and photograph all events occurring on Sydney Harbour.
Please note there is no media accreditation and there are no designated media areas in operation on New Year’s Eve.
Media are advised that due to road closures and large crowds on the night they should plan well in advance to find and secure vantage points for filming and reporting.
Media Opportunities
The City of Sydney organises a series of photo opportunities between Christmas and New Year’s Eve with opportunities to film fireworks being loaded onto barges, information about the Bridge Effect and an update from event organisers.
Media are invited to attend the official media launch for 2011 Sydney New Year’s Eve on Thursday 1 December 2011.
