At every Grands Feux Loto-Québec competition, the team giving the best performance is awarded the "Solstice Loto-Québec" grand prize. The 6-member jury that chooses the winner comprises individuals from different sectors: business, tourism, media, culture and the arts.

The "Solstice Loto-Québec" is one of the most sought-after awards on the international pyrotechnical competition circuit. The original bronze sculpture by Riverain is handed out every year to the team judged to have best met the following criteria:

• Quality and quantity of pyrotechnical pieces and effects;
• Most judicious use of the site;
• Synchronization of displays and soundtrack;
• Concept design, diversity, and originality;
• Intensity of colors and fireworks.
