Published programme
The "Busan Fireworks Festival" is a major South Korean multimedia fireworks festival held in the area around Gwangalli Beach and the Gwangandaegyo Bridge. Starting with a celebratory fireworks show commemorating the 2005 APEC summit, it has become a representative autumn cultural event for Busan, and this year marks its 21st anniversary. The festival features a large-scale multimedia show where music and fireworks are combined, utilizing the special lighting and large-scale display systems of the Gwangandaegyo Bridge. Taking advantage of the unique geographical features of Gwangalli Beach at night, the festival uses original display techniques and large-scale fireworks displays, attracting numerous domestic and international visitors every year, making it a global festival. This 21st edition of the event is planned to feature a more sophisticated storytelling and marine fireworks display, which will illuminate the Busan night sky.
