Does Mount Gambier host new year eve fireworks festival on 31 Dec 2020?
Hi Martin,
Unfortunately, the official new years eve event for this year has been canceled in Mount Gambier. This was announced earlier in the year due to the COVID-19 situation and restrictions on social distancing.
Managing a number of other websites, it appears that nearly every location has canceled their fireworks displays this year – only Sydney is going ahead and they have cut their display back to 7 minutes and you have to be either a resident or frontline to get anywhere near the harbour.
Thanks
Michael
