New Years Eve is one of the most anticipated days of the year, as we close off the year behind us and welcome the year ahead. This year however, given all the highs and lows experienced in 2020, it’s set to be even more sentimental. With international borders still closed, and perhaps many not having been able to visit the city of Sydney all year, we expect the demand for the best seat in the house as the clock strikes 12, to be once more in hot demand.
