The story

Labasa New Year Street Party in Labasa Bus Station

Labasa's New Year street party returned to the town's bus stand after a five-year lapse, drawing close to two hundred people for an evening of live local bands, meke performances and hula dances by a Multicultural Center student team, alongside food like burgers, juice and kava. It suits visitors on Vanua Levu wanting a smaller-scale, recently revived, genuinely local New Year celebration.

Labasa's New Year street party returned to the town's bus stand after a five-year lapse, drawing close to two hundred people for an evening that organizers, led by the Labasa Town Council, framed as a genuine community reunion after the extended gap rather than a routine annual fixture taken for granted.
