Hundreds of revelers converged in a loud street party in Victoria on Monday night to say goodbye to 2018 and to welcome the New Year. Seychellois bands and local artists provided live entertainment for the crowd. The highlight of the evening was the countdown to midnight and to 2019.
As the clock tower — a smaller replica of the famous Big Ben of London — struck midnight, church bells rang in unison and people in the streets exchanged warm New Year’s wishes, with cheers, hugs and kisses – grateful to have made it to another year.
