The New Year’s Eve Brisbane celebrations are focused on the end of year festivities including fireworks, parties and events, restaurant dinner dining and council supported free activities. These are some of the ways Queensland capital city of Brisbane celebrates New Year’s Eve. How will you see out the year?
The Brisbane River is one part of the party scene for the 31st December events. All along the River and Southbank area venues open to the night skies to view the spectacular 8pm and midnight fireworks. Gorgeous dining and dinner options are available at restaurant venues along the river and in the CBD and surrounding suburbs. A little further out the NYE party scene hots up in Fortitude Valley with themed party’s at pubs and nightclubs. We have some of the best ideas for your New Year’s Eve Brisbane style. We hope you enjoy the celebrations.
Another item to consider is getting around Brisbane. There are many varied options but public transport of trains, buses are all good options. And then further options of taxi’s, water taxis and ferries. Being Summer hopefully the Big New Year’s Eve Brisbane Night will be nice and warm but watch the weather closer to the event.
