HAPPY NEW YEAR!

AUSTRALIANS have ushered in 2016 with spectacular fireworks displays, as countries around the world put their own spin on the global celebration.

In Sydney, more than a million punters filled parks and streets to catch a glimpse of the world famous light show.

Synchronised to a soundtrack of some of 2015’s biggest hits including Uptown Funk and Hold Back the River, a multicoloured firework “waterfall” cascaded off the Harbour Bridge and pyrotechnic butterflies, octopuses and flowers lit up the sky.

The almost 15-minute fireworks show sent crowds in the harbour city into rapturous cheers and applause.

Swarms of bubble machine-wielding children who caught the 9pm fireworks made way for loved-up couples in prime positions beneath the Harbour Bridge for Sydney’s midnight show.

Packs of exuberant twenty-somethings broke into spontaneous dance-offs, while amateur photographers descended on the harbour in droves hoping to capture the perfect shot.

Melbourne welcomed 2016 with its biggest fireworks display yet, sending nearly 10 tonnes of fireworks into the sky at midnight in a rooftop display.

Thousands packed the CBD, braving the sweltering heat to catch a glimpse of the stunning fireworks.

Meanwhile, over at the Crown Casino, James Packer hosted his own NYE party where his girlfriend Mariah Carey performed.

The 45-year-old diva was the star attraction in a white diamond dress with a plunging neckline.

Packer was accompanied to the event by Foreign Affairs minister Julie Bishop and her partner, property developer David Panton.

Across Australia, thousands welcomed the new year with big parties and lots of champagne.

More than 100,000 people helped ring in the new year in Brisbane, an hour after the rest of the eastern states.

A synchronised fireworks display was set off from five barges and three CBD rooftops, coinciding with a display on the Gold Coast.
