9pm fireworks

For those planning on watching the midnight fireworks show, answering the question as to the best place to view the fireworks is easy. Nothing beats the uninterrupted views and front row seat that comes with hiring a boat and going on new years eve Sydney Harbour cruise. In fact, after spending the last few new years competing with a million other people for a glimpse of the bridge, and then waiting 4 hours so I can pay $50 for a bottle of water, I'm rather tempted to give the whole thing a miss... or buy a ticket on another New Years Eve Harbour Cruise*
