At 11:55 pm today, 31 December (AEDT) MATE Computing will be broadcasting a live video stream of the NYE Fireworks on Sydney Harbour from the 1902 Steam Tug Waratah.  We will be in the exclusion zone close to the Harbour Bridge and Sydney Opera House

This test broadcast will be coming from my iPhone and is provided courtesy of livestream

Today (31 December) the 1902 Steam Tug Waratah and many of the other historical vessels operated by Sydney Heritage Fleet will be featured in the annual NYE celebrations on Sydney Harbour.  We will occupy prime positions within the exclusion zone for both the 9 pm and midnight firework displays and between the two sessions will be featuring in the parade of vessels around the harbour. 

A test broadcast will occur at 9 pm and the Main Event will kick off at 11:55 pm in time for the countdown to 2013 and what is arguably one of the finest annual firework displays in the world coming to you from one of the finest harbours in the world.
