New Year's Eve 2025 - Event Information

Next date: Wednesday, 31 December 2025 | 06:00 PM to 10:30 PM

Celebrate New Year's Eve with family and friends at the City of Maribyrnong's annual fireworks spectacular, held at Footscray Park on the Western Lawn!

Enjoy a relaxed evening as the sun sets and the fireworks dazzle the sky at 9:30 pm, perfect for families looking to celebrate early and avoid the big city crowds.

Pack a picnic or grab a bite from one of the many food trucks on-site. Don’t forget to bring a refillable water bottle, as this is a single-use plastic-free event. We encourage everyone to bring reusable containers to help minimize environmental impact.
