Sydney New Year’s Eve celebrations will be different this year. Plan ahead by booking venues, or celebrate locally or at home instead. Whether you are planning a celebration at home or in your local community, remember to ensure the safety of your family and friends. For all the details on NYE changes this year, visit .
