Every year since 1995, Grands Feux Loto-Québec has been organizing a high-calibre international competition of fireworks set to music. Both members of the public and visitors from around the globe gather to watch this innovative pyromusical event, which boosts the Greater Québec Area's image as a premier tourist destination and stimulates the local economy.
This international pyromusical competition has featured over 30 of the best teams of fireworks artists and handlers from many different countries: Australia, Canada, China, the Czech Republic, England, France, Germany, Italy, Mexico, Portugal, South Africa and Sweden. Each edition of the Grands Feux Loto-Québec has drawn a crowd of thousands to the foot of the Montmorency Falls to watch the brilliancy of these master fireworks handlers.
Teams of international-level fireworks artists create fantastic masterpieces on a natural tableau consisting of the night sky and the stunning waterfall below. Thousands gather to admire the carefully orchestrated flashes of chromatic radiance high overhead. The
fifteen edition of the Loto-Québec International Fireworks Competition will take place from July 24 to August 11, 2010.
