IPSWICH residents will this evening be treated to one of the only official New Year’s Eve fireworks displays to take place across South East Queensland.
While Brisbane and Gold Coast will go without, Ipswich City Council has instead managed to deliver a first-of-its-kind event at the Tivoli Drive-In.
It comes after Ipswich City Council announced the cancellation of its usual fireworks CBD display in accordance with COVID-19 protocol.
Tivoli executive director Fred Muys said he was approached to host the now sold-out event about ten weeks ago.
“We jumped at the opportunity and said we’d love to do that for the community,” he said.
