For all those young at heart, there will be music to dance and sing along to, followed by a spectacular fireworks display at 9.30pm, and then another at midnight.<\/p>\n
Events co-ordinator Helene Cameron said that after chatting with locals, it seemed the Borough of Queenscliffe had not held any official fireworks for about three decades.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe Harbour made the decision after discussing it with their traders, who willingly have sponsored the event, including the Queenscliff Point Lonsdale Community Enterprise and the Queenscliff Bowling, Tennis and Croquet Club,\u201d Ms Cameron said.<\/p>\n
The event will be held at the Queenscliff Harbour in the restaurant precinct.<\/p>\n
Tickets are $20 per person (children under 16 free), and are available from queenscliffharbour.com.au.<\/p>\n
