Spectacular as always.

Australia is one of the first places around the world to ring in the New Year and it’s consistently one of the best, particularly in its biggest city.

Every year, thousands of people gather around Sydney’s iconic and breathtaking harbour to celebrate the start of a new year and this year was no different.

Given all that’s gone on in 2016, it should be no surprise people are happy it’s come to an end, but what a way to welcome in its successor.
