The City of Perth is planning a massive send-off for 2007 with a party that will kick the New Year off with a bang, as Northbridge hosts three stages of free entertainment and the streets come alive with performers and revelers!
6.00 PM
As the evening begins, traffic along James Street and surrounding areas will make way for a fun, family-friendly pedestrian mall featuring extended al fresco dining from your favourite Northbridge restaurants and eateries and free entertainment from Perth’s best street performers and artists.
9.30 PM – MAIN STAGES
(Northbridge Piazza site and Cnr James and William Streets)
From 9.30 PM until midnight, you’ll be able to take your pick of two stages of non-stop action from some of Perth’s best club DJs, Ben Taafe and Charlie Bucket, playing back-to-back sets with bands including the explosive cool of locals The Bluejays, the swinging big-band sounds of Adam Hill or the Mace Francis Orchestra.
In the hour of the final countdown, expect all-on-the-floor excitement as hip hop crews Delta Forse and The Bigness control one stage, while the other end of the street goes retro with a Countdown Spectacular, Go Go Dancers, The Bluejays and more!
In addition to great music, there'll be aerial acrobatics from Fliptease, incredible digital "sculptures" from ENESS (electronicmiracles.com) and the Robin Fox Laser Show on the main stage for the final countdown… and much more!
92.9FM will also be joining in the New Year’s celebrations with a third stage of entertainment, situated between the Paramount and Cinema Paradiso on James Street, where radio personalities (including the irascible comedy of Ethel Chop) will be making live crosses throughout the night from the best place to celebrate New Year’s Eve in the state… Northbridge!
After Midnight: Carry on the party at the wide variety of Northbridge nightspots, with pubs, clubs and cafes to suit every celebratory style.
