The New South Wales opposition is promising to overturn an unpopular decision to charge admission to watch the Sydney New Year's Eve fireworks at some harbourside locations, arguing it's a 'fundamental' experience that should be free.
abc.net.au/news/nsw-labor-pledges-to-make-nye-fireworks-viewing-free/101812204Revellers will be allowed to watch the Sydney New Year's Eve fireworks free of charge from viewing spots along the harbour foreshore if New South Wales Labor wins the 2023 election.
The "pay-to-view" model was introduced by the New South Wales government in 2011 in just a few locations and, although it caused community outrage, it has since been expanded to include 20 areas. Premier Dominic Perrottet has criticised the opposition's policy, labelling it as "embarrassing" and lacking depth.
