Melbourne's light show is expected to dazzle tonight with fireworks and a laser show.
00:07
The Lord Mayor says we'll have more lasers than Star Wars.
00:11
Now this is one of four family-friendly celebration zones around the city.
00:15
I'm here in Flagstaff Gardens.
00:17
You can see a stage, there'll be food set up and this is where the kids' fireworks will
00:21
go off at 9.30 tonight.
00:24
It'll be a spectacular display before the midnight show where 27 skyscrapers along six
00:30
kilometres of city skyline will ring in 2025.
00:35
And that's been designed so that anyone around the suburbs can watch from wherever they are.
00:40
If you can see the city, you'll be able to see the fireworks.
00:42
That's what we're being told for tonight.
00:44
Now it's also going to be packed in the city.
00:47
If you do come, it is free public transport, but we're being told to plan ahead and to
00:51
behave.
00:52
The police will be keeping an eye out and they do have special stop and search powers
00:57
tonight if they are suspicious somebody is doing the wrong thing, but they're hoping
01:01
everyone celebrates responsibly.
