Fireworks

Melbourne will light up the skies twice on New Year’s Eve with both family-friendly early evening fireworks and midnight rooftop fireworks. You can also enjoy the midnight fireworks live from home by tuning into the Channel 9 broadcast.

SKYLINE VIEWING

See the city skyline, see the midnight fireworks

The midnight fireworks moment is designed to be viewed from afar and will see the city come alive with fireworks and lasers. Find your own location anywhere in the greater Melbourne area as skyline views from further away provide the best show.
