Internationally acclaimed pop group, Sheppard, have been announced as the headliner of New Year's Eve celebrations in Rockingham.
The foreshore will become a hub of music, colour and community spirit on Wednesday, December 31 with festivities beginning at 5pm.
These include roaming performers and interactive entertainment, children's activities and amusement rides, food trucks and vendors and two fireworks displays at 9pm and midnight.
Sheppard will perform some of their hit songs like 'Geronimo' and 'Coming Home' after the 9pm fireworks followed by Diamond Road leading the countdown to the midnight fireworks display.
“New Year’s Eve is just one of the many events we have coming up as part of our Summer Series. We’re proud to offer a diverse line-up of events that celebrate our community and showcase the beauty of our City,” City of Rockingham Mayor Lorna Buchan said.
On January 26, the celebrations continue with Australia Day at the Rockingham Foreshore.
Families can enjoy stage performances, roving entertainment, kids’ activities and food vendors, followed by a fireworks display at 8.30pm across Churchill Park and Bell Park.
A month later, Symphony on the Green returns on Saturday, February 21 with the West Australian Symphony Orchestra (WASO) performing beloved film and TV favourites under the stars.
Pre-show entertainment begins at 5.30pm, with WASO taking the stage at 7pm.
“Whether you're dancing at the foreshore, enjoying fireworks with the family, or relaxing under the stars with WASO, there’s something for everyone," Mayor Buchan said.
