As the New Year approaches, families often seek a celebration that is both exciting and kid-friendly.
The Central Coast is creating its own traditions in contrast to Sydney.
The Coast, known for its stunning natural beauty and relaxed atmosphere, offers just that – a perfect alternative to the typical New Year’s Eve revelries in Sydney.
This year, the region is all set to host an array of family-friendly festivities, promising a memorable end to the year.
One of the highlights of the Central Coast’s New Year’s Eve celebration is the event at The Entrance.
Known for its picturesque waterfront and family-oriented environment, The Entrance becomes a hub of joy and entertainment during this special time.
Families can stroll through vibrant markets, where local vendors offer everything from handmade crafts to delicious treats, perfect for keeping the kids engaged and the adults intrigued.
As the evening progresses, the sky above The Entrance lights up with a spectacular fireworks display.
Unlike the more intense and crowded fireworks shows in bigger cities, the display here is designed to be child-friendly, with an emphasis on awe-inspiring visuals rather than loud noises that might startle the little ones.
Not far behind in the festive spirit is Gosford, another Central Coast hot spot for NYE
Here, the community will come together from 5pm to celebrate with live music, street performers and an array of food stalls.
Adding a unique twist to the New Year’s Eve tradition, Industree Group Stadium hosts an exciting game that has become a customary part of the celebrations.
Coinciding with the festivities at the Leagues Club Park will be the Mariners’ football games.
Both women’s and men’s teams will attract families from far and wide.
Gosford’s fireworks display, to be held after the football games, is timed to coincide with The Entrance at 9pm, allowing families the flexibility to hop between venues if they wish.
This year, the traditional NYE Mariners matches are scheduled, offering families a chance to indulge in their passion while ringing in the New Year.
The stadium ensures a family-friendly environment, with plenty of activities to keep children entertained throughout the game.
Safety and comfort are paramount at all these events, with organisers ensuring a secure environment for families.
The emphasis on community, coupled with the stunning backdrop of the Central Coast, makes for a truly unique and enjoyable New Year’s Eve experience.
As midnight approaches and the fireworks illuminate the sky, families on the Central Coast will come together in a shared moment of joy and anticipation.
The serene beaches, the laughter of children and the sense of community make the Central Coast’s New Year’s Eve celebrations a wholesome, delightful alternative for families looking to welcome the new year in a special way.
What an absolute waste of time, 5 minutes of fireworks, Central Coast Council and Mariner’s you’re a joke! I will never waste my time again.
Shame on Gosford city council for letting us all down with just 4 mins of pathetic fireworks, no toilets with a huge crowd the kids deserved better we all did this was a complete fail on all parties involved in organizing this event i think they should all be fired for this incompetence.
