Robbie Williams welcomed the new year by headlining ABC’s New Year’s Eve party, which took place in Sydney, Australia. The iconic event took place in front of the stunning Sydney Opera House and the Harbour Bridge, attracting a large audience eager to celebrate the countdown to midnight.

His set consisted of eight songs that included some of his biggest hits, such as ‘Let Me Entertain You’, ‘Feel’, and ‘Rock DJ’. Along with these favorites, he also performed a cover of Chris Kenner’s classic ‘Land of 1000 Dances’ and Chris Thompson’s ‘You’re The Voice’.

As the night drew to a close, Williams delivered a heartfelt performance of his emotional ballad ‘Angels’, which thrilled his fans. Following the final notes, he was joined by the hosts of the night to usher in the New Year, which was celebrated with a spectacular fireworks display that lit up the Sydney sky.

In a light-hearted moment, Williams introduced himself with confidence, humorously declaring, “Allow me to introduce myself. This is my band, this is my arse and you better be good. Because I am phenomenal.” This playful banter was well-received by the enthusiastic crowd.
