There simply is no other place to be on New Year’s Eve than cruising Sydney Harbour! Considering Sydney ushers in every new year more than half a day before many of the world’s most populated party cities – London, New York, Paris, Rio de Janeiro – it’s up to us to show the world how it’s done. Starship Sydney and The Pontoon introduce locals and tourists alike to the utter wonder of the globally-renowned New Years Eve Sydney fireworks display, from a vantage point that’s difficult to match.
The party begins with embarkation and guests enjoy celebrating with delicious food and of course, ample liquid celebrations! Kick your heels up in style aboard Starship Sydney; party hard aboard The Pontoon … eat, drink, laugh, dance and be merry whilst enjoying the scenic delights of Sydney Harbour at night.
An undeniable buzz builds in the air as the old year draws to a close and every person around the harbour anticipates the commencement of the dazzling, 20-minute fireworks and laser display. Witnessing this aboard Starship or The Pontoon is an event sure to remain a fond memory for a lifetime.

New Years Eve Fireworks on Sydney Harbour

Sydney Harbour Bridge Fireworks
The best way to celebrate the New Years Eve fireworks display on Sydney Harbour is undoubtedly on a charter boat inside the Exclusion Zone. The zone is marked by lit yellow buoys extending from Cockatoo Island in the west to Clark Island in the east. The Exclusion Zone will be in effect from 8pm on New Year’s Eve until 12.30am on New Year’s Day. No traffic – apart from authorised vessels – will be allowed inside the Exclusion Zone and there will be no access under the Sydney Harbour Bridge during this time.
The fireworks kick off with a 9pm family show – a choreographed display with fireworks set off from barges on Sydney Harbour and lots of special pyrotechnic effects from the bridge and city buildings.
A soundtrack will be broadcast on some radio stations and full visual coverage is provided by Channel Ten television.
There will be a themed ropelight design for this year’s Harbour of Light Parade and the gorgeous colours as the vessels steam down the harbour will be a spectacular site.
Being onboard an official Harbour of Light Parade vessel means taking advantage of these benefits -
- the best view of the 9pm Family Fireworks display.
- cruising Sydney Harbour inside the exclusion zone between 9.15pm and 11.30pm.
- the best view of the Midnight Fireworks display.
- onboard entertainment and catering.
- Passenger numbers are deliberately limited to offer better services to guests.
- much more convenient boarding and disembarkation times.
The Sydney Harbour New Year’s Eve Fireworks Display is one of the most spectacular New Years Eve shows in the world. Tickets on authorised Harbour of Light parade vessels sell out months in advance.
