Rob and I took a walk down towards Cremorne Point – about a 20 minute walk from our flat – around 9 AM on New Year’s Eve Day and people were camping out the night before to make sure they had the best view of the Harbour Bridge. It was nuts!!
Luckily, we purchased tickets about a month in advance to a house on government property. It was only $20 per person with some of the best views in the city – AND we were able to bring all the food and booze we could carry (compared to $300 per person just to watch the fire works at the Opera Bar, food and drink not included).We were sitting on a hill overlooking the Harbour Bridge, right near Rose Bay.
The guys showed up 2-3 hours before the gates opened, thinking we would be standing in an already long queue, but they were the first ones there.. by more than an hour.
