Amanda Clarke, The Show Must Go On (March Theme: At Night )

Sydney went into 2021 with a shortened fireworks display on a vacated harbour themed on love and unity amid the COVID-19 pandemic.The city largely banned crowds for its world-renowned pyrotechnic display on New Year's Eve for the first time.The Harbour Bridge before midnight was lit up with the words "we are one". Sydneysiders mostly watched the fireworks on television, with a permit system established for the CBD only for those with pre-existing hospitality bookings.Boats were permitted on Sydney Harbour with strict guidelines, while the children-friendly fireworks at 9pm did not go ahead.
