Last NYE fireworks for Lamana

For years, the Lamana Gold Club has done the show for the thousands of people in Port Moresby that take on the streets at Hohola, Waigani, Gordons and so many other neighbourhoods to watch the spectacle.

Lamana Hotel general manager Yiannis Nicolaou said they have been doing this show for free as their contribution to the people of Moresby and Papua New Guinea.

Nicolaou said that the only place available, safe and convenient for them to do the show is the new Treasury building.

NYE countdown a carnival

The theme party for this New Year’s Eve is ‘masquerade carnival’ featuring the Ice Fashion Show grand final to choose the top designer and top model of the year.

Entertainment will also include Australia’s hottest female DJ duo The Twins to count you down into the New Year.

Lamana Hotel general manager Yiannis Nicolaou said every year the fireworks get bigger and better, and this New Year’s Eve is expected to showcase another big fireworks display.

Nicolaou said the show will be more spectacular than last year with a lot more shots and non-stop action.
