Although there are fireworks going off from 6 barges on the harbor and from the tops of city office towers it is the 13 minute finale from the Sydney Harbor Bridge that is the focus of most people’s attention. This year there will be 20,000 individual fireworks shells fired from the bridge structure during that 13 minutes all orchestrated to music. The planning forĀ a Sydney NYE fireworks show takes 14 months with a team of 40 expert pyrotechnicians designing the event.
