New Year’s Eve Fireworks at the Magic Fountain

Expand

A magical night, when we will say goodbye to the old and hello to the new. We will see in 2020 with an impressive show filled with light, music and fire.

Universal languages and contemporary formats will be provided by Group F, an internationally renowned company specializing in large-format shows, which already visited us last year and was behind events such as the opening ceremony of the Rio Olympic Games and the inauguration of the Abu Dhabi Louvre.

This very original show will start at 11.48 pm and finish at 00.12 am. For the first 12 minutes we’ll run through the last 12 months, burning the year that's past, and take a trip to various places around the world where the year has already come in. Then, when the 12 chimes of midnight strike, an eruption of fireworks and flames will welcome in the New Year. In a poetic ending to the show, the 12 months of 2019 will be congratulated with 12 wishes, one for each month of 2020, along with images that evoke the natural world.

With the artistic vision of Christophe Berthonneau and electro and electroacoustic music from Scott Gibbons, written specially for the occasion, the show will have an original soundtrack, 125 flame and pyrotechnic generators, a 15-metre high cylinder as the screen, and illuminated characters suspended from zip lines that will pass over the Magic Fountain going in the opposite direction.
