Beaches Council New Year's Eve

New Year’s Eve Fireworks Across the Beaches

New Year’s Eve on the Northern Beaches is set to go off with a bang! Fireworks will light up the skies at Dee Why, Frenchs Forest, Manly, and Bayview at 9pm, with an extra midnight display at Bayview to welcome 2026 in sparkling style.

Families are encouraged to bring a picnic or grab takeaway from one of the many local restaurants and enjoy the show from their favourite viewing spot. For everyone’s safety, road closures will be in place around Dee Why and Manly, so plan your journey ahead of time.
