The 2012 New Year was ushered in around the world with some spectacular fireworks displays.
Sydney have of course established the precedent for amazing displays on New Years Eve and they didn’t disappoint. But it is clear there is now some competition with great shows in London, Dubai and Rio thrilling millions of people.

Let’s face it if you are going to do some serious celebrating you’ve just got to have fireworks!
Happy New Year.
Honourable Mention – Reykjavik, Iceland
We include this clip, not because it is a co-ordinated display, but for the enthusiasm of the Icelandic people of Reykjavik setting of their own fireworks at home. Wow! Way to go!
