Council is encouraging a family-friendly atmosphere in local parks and public spaces on New Year’s Eve.
The consumption of alcohol is banned in Yarra’s streets, parks and other public areas from 9pm on Wednesday 30 December through to 9am on Friday 1 January. Amplified music is also not permitted during this period.
If you’re thinking of enjoying the occasion at your local park, Council encourages you not to bring glass bottles or containers and to dispose of any rubbish in the bins provided or to take it home with you.
North Fitzroy’s Edinburgh Gardens – always a popular spot for people to celebrate – will feature artistic light projections curated by Globelight from sunset until midnight on New Year’s Eve. The Gardens will also have additional toilets, bins, lighting and event staff.
New Year’s Eve celebrations are welcome in all of Yarra’s parks and gardens but there will be zero tolerance for anti-social behavior. Police and local laws officers will be in attendance to enforce the bans.
For more information about New Year’s Eve in Yarra, contact Council on 9205 5555.
Celebrate Local Looking to enjoy some live music or dance the night away this New Year’s Eve? Why not keep things local and celebrate at one of Yarra’s many licenced venues, some of which have extended trading hours for the night. Walk, take the tram or grab a taxi to your favourite bar or pub – support local businesses and celebrate responsibly.
We will be providing a listing of gigs happening in Yarra on this page as we learn more about what is planned.
Council wishes everyone a happy and safe New Year!
