North Sydney Mayor Zoë Baker said the event would offer a uniquely North Sydney way to celebrate one of Sydney’s biggest nights of the year. 

“North Sydney Olympic Pool has one of the most extraordinary settings in Sydney, and what better way to celebrate its return than bringing the community together here for New Year’s Eve,” Mayor Baker said. 

“This will be a very special way for families to welcome 2027 together, enjoying the harbour celebrations at the reopened Pool. 

“For 90 years, this much-loved Pool has been part of North Sydney’s story, and its reopening gives us something special to celebrate as we welcome 2027.” 

The North Sydney New Year’s Pool Party will kick off at 6pm on Thursday 31 December, giving ticket holders the chance to swim and celebrate against the backdrop of Sydney Harbour before taking in the 9pm and midnight fireworks. 

Pools will be open for swimming during the event, with pool inflatables and entertainment planned throughout the evening. Food and beverages will also be available for purchase at the venue. 

With capacity limited to 1,000 ticket holders, the event will offer guests a special way to experience New Year’s Eve from one of North Sydney’s most recognisable harbourside locations. 

Tickets will be $250 for adults and $125 for children aged three to 15 years. Tickets will be available to purchase from 12pm (midday) Wednesday 11 November.
