The Honda Celebration of Light is Vancouver's largest public event and the longest-running offshore fireworks competition in the world. Over three nights, competing countries present breathtaking pyrotechnic displays choreographed to music. Hundreds of thousands of spectators gather along English Bay's beaches and parks to witness these spectacular 25-minute shows lighting up Vancouver's summer sky. The event also features live music performances, food vendors, and family-friendly activities in the festival village.
