The local council organises Phillip Island New Year’s Eve celebrations, which are always highly anticipated during the holiday season.
Ring in the new year in style with mind-blowing fireworks, performers that invite you to get up and dance, and a good time for the entire family.
Phillip Island New Year’s Eve, 2025/2026 Fireworks, Cowes & Inverloch
The event occurs every December 31st at the Cowes Foreshore. Live entertainment by this stunning beachside location, interactive music, and a barbecue guarantee an unforgettable New Year’s Eve on Phillip Island. Amusement rides for the young ones will be set up as well.
Because you’ll be in a beautiful beachside location, there will be lots of space for everyone to lay out picnic mats or even dance while enjoying a good view.
The Inverloch Recreation Reserve also hosts a New Year’s Eve party from 9:30pm onwards on December 31st. There is also an event at Coronet Bay Foreshore with a fireworks display at 9:30pm.
Coronet Bay
New Year’s Eve at the Coronet Bay Foreshore will once again be lit up with a firework display at the family-friendly time of 9:30pm.
Inverloch
Watch the sky light up as Inverloch comes alive to celebrate the New Year with a spectacular display of fireworks the whole family can enjoy.
Can you pls confirm if there will be NYE fire works in cowes?
Hi Mary,
I have searched far and wide and I have been told that the “end of year fireworks displays will not go ahead in Cowes, Coronet Bay or Inverloch this year. Despite COVID-19 restrictions easing considerably in recent weeks, planning of events like these requires significant lead time and at this late stage with conditions continuing to change, the difficult decision has been made not to host the fireworks displays this year.”
Looking at what events are actually occurring on Phillip Island on New Year’s Eve, the only events i could find information on is at the Phillip Island Golf Club and Hotel Phillip Island.
Thanks
Michael
