read moreCrowds attending New Year’s Eve celebrations at Melbourne’s Fed Square will be encouraged to film the event on their mobile phones, especially the mass dance countdown routine to midnight, and publish it on YouTube or Twitter to spread Melbourne’s New Year celebrations worldwide to family and friends.
Federation Square will be illuminated in a kaleidoscope of colour on New Year’s Eve with visitors asked to wear their brightest whites or boldest colours to welcome 2015 aglow by the specially-installed UV lighting.
Fed Square Chief Executive Chris Brooks explains “throughout the night, visitors will learn a dance choreographed by Lamine Sonko and The African Intelligence and at the stroke of midnight, the band will lead the crowd in an en-masse dance to their popular track, Light and Shine.
“10,000 specially designed wrist bands in a range of colours, which will glow under the UV lights, will create a spectacular sea of waving hands during the evening and the countdown to midnight and the fireworks.
“This will be a unique visual community moment in the heart of Melbourne and we are keen to have it embedded on the internet for worldwide exposure of Melbourne and Fed Square, often referred to as the People’s Square, at the start of 2015.”
The entertainment line-up by Multicultural Arts Victoria includes: 15-piece Cook Islands band Sounds of Polynesia; singer/dancer Neda Rahmani in Neon Rhythm Myth Masters; 10-piece African drum ensemble Wassawumba; tropical tribal band Congo Tardis #1; the Ethiopian Circus Trio and the soulful sounds of West Africa from Lamine Sonko and The African Intelligence.
