The pyrotechnic activity in the family began in 1934 by Joaquim da Silva Macedo, who passed on all his knowledge, techniques and methods to his son and grandchildren. They now manage the company and have adapted modern methods and expanded nationally and internationally to pyrotechnics markets and competitions representing their country and proud history.
The event attracts up to 400,000 spectators along the shores of English Bay each night.

be heard on CFMI Rock 101. The winning team will be announced on Wednesday, July 31. The event welcomes back the Red Bull Air Show, a spectacular pre-show performance happening on all three festival nights at 7:40 pm.
This year, the Honda Celebration of Light is excited to announce the premiere of an electric drone show, sponsored by the BC Honda Dealers. Each night at approximately 9:50 pm, attendees can watch a dazzling, choreographed drone display light up the skies over English Bay.
The Concord Pacific Grandstand offers reserved bleacher seating with elevated and direct sightlines to the fireworks barges, making it the most popular of the festival’s ticketed venues for visitors, families or groups.
