Why Spend New Year’s Eve on a Private Yacht?
New Year’s Eve on the Gold Coast is incredible — but it can also be crowded, loud and hectic. A private yacht lets you escape the chaos completely. Enjoy your own space, your own music, your own drinks and uninterrupted views of Surfers Paradise as the sky lights up with fireworks.
✨ Early Fireworks Cruise — Perfect for Families
The early fireworks show is ideal for families and groups wanting a magical but relaxed celebration. No crowds, no traffic — just calm water, sunset colours and a spectacular fireworks display from one of the best vantage points on the Gold Coast.
🎉 Main NYE Party Session — 9pm to 1am
This is the premium NYE experience. Party under the stars, BYO drinks, connect your playlist to the yacht’s premium Bluetooth sound system and celebrate right through to the midnight fireworks. It’s the ultimate private NYE boat party on the Gold Coast.
