Western Australians will have the opportunity to celebrate Australia Day with a bang with several fireworks displays set to light up the sky across the state.

The City of Perth is planning its annual Australia Day spectacular, with festivities kicking off at Langley Park from 3pm with a multicultural zone, carnival rides and sideshow alley.
A freestyle motocross and BMX stunt show will add to the family-friendly entertainment before a sky-dive display.
The official light show, featuring fireworks and drones, expected to kick off at 8.30pm, although exact times will depend on wind and light factors.
City of Perth Lord Mayor Bruce Reynolds said the Australia Day activities provided an opportunity for the community to come together to reflect, respect and celebrate Australia’s rich and diverse culture.
“Australia Day is a chance to gather in the heart of our city, enjoy a beautiful summer’s day by the river, and reflect on the many stories, cultures and shared values that shape our country,” he said.
“We encourage everyone to make their way into the city to enjoy a vibrant mix of cultural experiences, live performances, entertainment, rides and international cuisine.
“Bring your friends and family, set up for the day along the Derbarl Yerrigan (Swan River), and come together to watch the sky light up as we celebrate the city and lifestyle we know and love.”
