Farewell 2025 in style at Parramatta’s biggest NYE party
Published on 24 November 2025
Australian singing superstar Jessica Mauboy will headline Parramatta’s biggest New Year’s Eve celebration, with a family-friendly drone show and fireworks to feature at Parramatta Park.
The free annual event, taking place on Wednesday 31 December 2025 from 5pm, has increased in size to three stages, with Furnace and the Fundamentals and former yellow Wiggle Emma Memma to join Jessica Mauboy along with family-friendly activities, delicious food trucks and much more.
City of Parramatta Lord Mayor Cr Martin Zaiter said the City’s New Year’s Eve Party will be the biggest yet.
“Parramatta is known for throwing a tremendous event and after a record-breaking Parramatta Lanes and the return of Carols in Parramatta Park next month, we are aiming to end the year with a bang at our New Year’s Eve party,” Cr Zaiter said.
“This is the first year Parramatta’s New Year’s Eve celebration will have a drone show, rivalling displays seen in Brisbane and Melbourne, followed by the 9pm fireworks display.
“Bring your family and get in early to see superstars Jess Mauboy, Furnace and the Fundamentals and Emma Memma taking to three stages across the night.”
Entry to the event is free, however party goers will require a wristband to enter the Crescent Stage.
Wristbands will be available to collect from 1pm on New Year’s Eve at the Crescent Stage wristband tent free of charge and on a first come, first served basis (up to 5 wristbands can be collected per person). All other areas do not require a wristband to enter.
“We are anticipating a crowd of more than 80,000 people to come into Parramatta Park during the afternoon and into the evening,” Cr Zaiter said.
“There will be road closures leading up to the event and we recommend taking public transport into the CBD for the big night.”
“This is a family-friendly, safe event and everyone is welcome to celebrate the end of 2025 and the start of 2026 here in Parramatta.”
