Calling local musicians, artists, volunteers for Byron Bay NYE

Published on 22 November 2021

Organisers of this year’s New Year’s Eve event at Byron Bay are putting a call out for musicians and artists to be a part of the entertainment on 31 December 2021.

Two entertainment precincts are planned for the town with markets to start in Jonson Street at 4pm on New Year’s Eve.

There will be an interactive lighting installation at Dening Park from sunset with entertainment to start at 6pm.

Musicians, artists and people interested in volunteering to help with the New Year’s Eve event should go to the Soul Street website for more information.

“This year we are activating Dening Park as well as Jonson Street to give the event a refresh, but the aim is still to ensure we have a family-friendly, community focus for celebrations in the town,” Ms Adams, Director Corporate and Community Services, said.

“Council, with the support of Police, is activating Dening Park on NYE as part of a safety strategy where people are more spread out across the town,” Ms Adams said.

“We are hoping that families and residents come out in force on NYE because there is something for everyone.

“As always, this NYE Byron Bay will be family-friendly and there will be no tolerance for anti-social behaviour.

“Many parts of the town centre and beach front will be alcohol-free zones and there will be a heavy police presence,” Ms Adams said.
