Mount Gambier New Year’s Eve Festival

The City of Mount Gambier hosted a family-friendly New Year’s Eve celebration at the Mount Gambier Showgrounds on December 31, 2024.

This year, the event will shift from its usual venue of Vansittart Park to the Mount Gambier Showgrounds. It will include the usual fireworks displays at 9pm for the little ones and again at midnight.

After being cancelled just weeks out from New Year’s Eve last year, the Mount Gambier New Year’s Eve Festival is back thanks to a revitalised committee.

The annual event, organised by community committee Mount Gambier Community Events Management Inc., has been a staple in New Year’s Eve celebrations in Mount Gambier since its inception in 2009.

The event will also include activities for all ages, including live performances, attractions, and local mobile caterers. The entry fee will cover all entertainment and activities outside of the on-site catering.

New Year’s Eve celebrations bring the whole community together, regardless of their background. They are the social side of society and important parts of the community calendar.

So come down to the showgrounds with your whole family and get involved in the New Year’s Eve Celebrations!

    • Hi Martin,

      Unfortunately, the official new years eve event for this year has been canceled in Mount Gambier. This was announced earlier in the year due to the COVID-19 situation and restrictions on social distancing.

      Managing a number of other websites, it appears that nearly every location has canceled their fireworks displays this year – only Sydney is going ahead and they have cut their display back to 7 minutes and you have to be either a resident or frontline to get anywhere near the harbour.

      Thanks
      Michael
