Newport Arms Celebrates Australia Day Early

by Lauren on January 20th, 2008

Thongs, Source: Thiru Murugan @ Flickr http://www.flickr.com/photos/thiru/Start waving your flag, put on your thongs, and grab an ice-cold beer: Australia Day is coming. Here at The Sydney Traveler we’re happy for any excuse to celebrate this wonderful country we live in, and the extra day off work isn’t too bad either. It all happens on Saturday, and every day this week I’m going to take a look at some of the best ways to mark the occasion.

But you don’t need to wait until the big day to party. The Newport Arms Hotel is holding its 12th Annual Australia Day Eve Garden Party and Fireworks Extravaganza this Friday night. Just try saying that three times after a couple of schooners!

Start grooving from 7 pm when the pub blasts some funky beats into the beergarden. At midnight the fireworks over Pittwater will ring in Australia Day.

Aussies like to drink, so you can expect this to be a big night. Make sure you save yourself the hassle and leave the car at home. Special STA buses will travel to and from the venue every half hour to get you where you need to be safely.

Date: Friday January 25
Time: From 7 pm, fireworks at midnight
Location: The Newport Arms Hotel
Address: 2 Kalinya Street, Newport
