The fireworks will be launched from a pontoon on the Lake out from the boat ramp, providing the perfect vantage point for spectators to enjoy the show. They strongly encourage you to enjoy the barbeques and playgrounds leading to the spectacular fireworks display!
The fireworks will last roughly 8-10 minutes and will be launched from the water across from the boat ramp. Suitable weather conditions are critical, with wind being a significant factor. In the event of inclement weather, Hamilton Showgrounds will be prepared as an alternate venue.
Lake Hamilton will be closed from Midnight the night before, for all water-based use, including swimming, boating, fishing, etc. The Hamilton Showgrounds will also be closed during this period in case of a sudden venue change. Measures have been implemented to ensure that non-biodegradable debris will be cleaned up following the event.
Residents around Lake Hamilton and the Hamilton Showgrounds are advised to ensure pets and animals are secure during the fireworks display.
Gather with family and friends at Lake Hamilton for a picnic dinner as we count down and enjoy a fantastic atmosphere. Don’t miss the spectacular show that will dazzle your senses and create memories to last a lifetime. Celebrate the start of the new year in style!
