悉尼跨年焰火来了！幻境十足的海港大桥投影表演，万枚烟花特效迎接2020（组图）

本届庆典将为观众们准备一场以100,000余烟花特效组成的’艳丽科技花火（pyrotechnicolour）’盛宴，与其辉映的还有纯澳原创同步配乐、幻境十足的海港大桥桥墩外墙投影表演，以及一缕南半球最为闪耀的冲天光束，都将为这场世界顶级派对助兴。

悉尼市市长Clover Moore称，2019年悉尼跨年庆典将向百万现场观众和十亿多全球观众展示澳大利亚创意翘楚的宏才。

她说：“我们的跨年庆典已成为名扬四海、不可或缺的盛会；它不仅是我们这座城市的代名词，也是全澳人民的骄傲。”

“无论是火树银花的表演、姹紫嫣红的灯效，还是古老文明《土地的召唤（Calling Country）》仪式，或在午夜烟花喷射天际的刹那所奉献的全澳风格配乐，都是我们向世人展现顶尖国际人才的方式。”

“庆典烟花表演总指导福尔图纳托·福蒂（Fortunato Foti）及其专业团队不断创新，为我们带来灿若繁星的惊喜，我很期待他们今年的创作。”

今年标志着福蒂国际烟花公司（Foti International Fireworks）为悉尼市政府连续创作跨年烟花的第23个年头，该公司专门缔造拥有全球顶尖科技的烟花汇演。

福尔图纳托·福蒂将其100,000余烟花特效称之为迎接2020年钟声的’艳丽科技花火’盛宴。

福蒂先生说：“无论年龄、性别、种族或信仰，烟花都有无尽的感染力，让人们欢聚一堂，给大家带来欢乐和希望。”

“本届庆典上，曼妙的烟花将分别从悉尼海港大桥（Sydney Harbour Bridge）、悉尼歌剧院（Sydney Opera House）和海港水面7艘驳船上直冲天际，新颖造型包括璀璨变色闪星、彩绘花窗风格贝壳和华丽灿柳造型等。”

“喷射节奏会与配乐、桥墩投影和彩光特效同步，这将成为我们迄今为止最精彩的寿山之作。”

悉尼市市长说，整个悉尼都为汹涌的森林大火所带来的重创而深感悲痛，她还承诺会利用跨年庆典的影响力为灾民筹款、提升社会关注。

她说：“悉尼跨年庆典将世界各地的人民团结在一起，传递着对新一年的希望。”

“我们虽然不能取消跨年庆典烟花表演，但可充分利用这场庆典的强大影响力，为澳大利亚红十字会（Australian Red Cross）筹款，援助旱灾和火灾的受难群体。”

悉尼市政府号召所有在跨年夜造访悉尼的人们和围坐家中观看电视转播的观众都能向红十字会救灾复原基金（Red Cross Disaster Relief and Recovery Fund）慷慨捐赠。

市政府已向红十字会捐赠了$300,000善款，并向乡村妇女协会（Country Women’s Association）和Wires（新南威尔士州野生动物信息、救助和教育服务有限公司）分别捐款$300,000 和$20,000，以支援受灾民众、灾区和野生动物。

澳大利亚红十字会新南威尔士州/澳大利亚首都地区分会代理会长（Australian Red Cross acting director NSW/ACT）安妮·哈维（Annie Harvey）向市政府的慷慨捐款表示感谢，并呼吁跨年夜的游客和观众爱心相助。

哈维女士说：“我们对市长Clover Moore女士在跨年之际为澳大利亚红十字会救灾复原基金（Australian Red Cross’ Disaster Relief and Recovery Fund）筹款的公众号召深表感谢。”

“整个悉尼乃至全澳举国上下都被近日多场森林火灾造成的巨大损失所震撼，但也正是因为这汹涌的大火，让人们团结一致，自发奉献爱心，传递温情和援助。”

“为红十字会救灾复原基金捐款能让我们的志愿者得到相应的专业培训，并能让我们的工作人员在应对现有和未来的惨重火灾时，第一时间奔赴灾区前线。”

“我们团队的绝大多数成员都是志愿者。捐款能让我们为灾民雪中送炭，筹备防灾措施、安排庇护和心理急救，并为灾后的几个月甚至几年的恢复重建提供切实的帮助。”

Famous fireworks to light up Sydney sky

A fireworks show renowned as the world’s best will form the centrepiece of the stunning Sydney New Year’s Eve spectacle to ring in a new decade.

More than 100,000 fireworks will create a ‘pyrotechnicolour’ extravaganza synchronised to an all-Aussie soundtrack, stunning pylon projections and the brightest lighting beam in the southern hemisphere.

Lord Mayor Clover Moore said 2019 Sydney New Year’s Eve would be an exhibition of Australia’s extraordinary creative talents to the one million people watching around the harbour and more than one billion people viewing around the world.

“Our New Year’s Eve celebrations have become world renowned and synonymous with our city, but we can also proudly boast that they’re all-Australian,” the Lord Mayor said.

“Whether it’s our fireworks, lighting effects, Calling Country ceremony or midnight soundtrack, we’re showing the world that we have some of the best global creative talents.

“Fortunato Foti and his team never cease to amaze us with their stunning fireworks and I very much look forward to seeing what they’ve got planned this year.”

It’s the 23rd consecutive Sydney New Year’s Eve for Foti International Fireworks, who put on one of the most technologically advanced fireworks displays in the world. 

More than 100,000 individual effects will form what Fireworks Director Fortunato Foti is calling a ‘pyrotechnicolour’ extravaganza to welcome 2020.

“It doesn’t matter your age, gender, race or religion – fireworks have the enormous power to unite people, bringing happiness and hope,” Mr Foti said.

“This year we’ll be firing from the Sydney Harbour Bridge, Sydney Opera House and seven barges around the harbour, with exciting new effects like colour changing stars, stained-glass shells and glittering willows.

“We’ve synchronised our fireworks to the soundtrack, pylon projections and lighting display for what is going to be our most choreographed show to date.”

The Lord Mayor said all of Sydney had been deeply saddened by the tragic impact of the bushfires, and pledged to use New Year’s Eve to help raise money and awareness for those in need.

“Sydney New Year’s Eve unites people from all over the world with a message of hope for the year to come,” the Lord Mayor said.

“We have committed to harnessing the enormous power of the event to raise more money for drought and fire affected communities, with money going to the Australian Red Cross.”

Visitors to Sydney and those watching at home will be encouraged to donate to the Red Cross Disaster Relief and Recovery Fund, supporting those impacted by bushfires.

The City of Sydney recently donated $300,000 to the Red Cross, alongside $300,000 to the Country Women’s Association and $20,000 to Wires to support people, communities and wildlife that have been affected by drought and bushfire.

Australian Red Cross acting director NSW/ACT, Annie Harvey, thanked the City of Sydney for its donation and urged New Year’s Eve visitors and viewers to dig deep. 

“We thank Lord Mayor Clover Moore for encouraging community members to make a donation to Australian Red Cross’s Disaster Relief and Recovery Fund this New Year’s Eve,” Ms Harvey said.

“People across Sydney and Australia have been deeply moved by the scale of losses with the recent spate of bushfires, and it has inspired extraordinary acts of kindness and an outpouring of support.

“Making a donation to Red Cross’s Disaster Relief and Recovery Fund means our trained volunteers and staff can be on the frontlines during disasters, including the bushfires we’re currently seeing, and those yet to come.

“It enables us to help give people the support they need – whether that’s help to prepare, a safe place to take shelter, psychological first aid or practical support through the months and even years it can take to recover. The vast majority of our team are volunteers.”
