2000 Sydney New Year Fireworks | Alt replay | Sydney's Millennium

1 January 2000 this version is a highlights package, different to the other replays that are on this channel. It was screened shortly after the actual display on the Nine Network (approx. 2 am). It also features an alternate angle of the countdown (facing the Sydney Harbour Bridge, instead of an aerial shot). Following the opening sequence, it then cuts to the final 14 minutes of the display. cover photo caption - SYDNEY, AUSTRALIA: Fireworks explode in a display over the Sydney Opera House and the Harbour Bridge at midnight in Sydney 01 January 2000.
