Having been a Hotelier for the last 21 years i have seen most of the Firework displays and they are absolutely fantastic, the best firework i have seen so far has to be the Saturn firework, I just wish there could have been more Countries taking part but still maybe next year
Keep up the good work

Been to all the shows over the last few years. So far this year i’d say Austria were simply the best. They turned night into day with the finale and the sea being used for some of the fireworks was amazing. Don’t miss the final display FRIDAY 28th 8 o’clock onwards.

I agree Austria were by far the best. Saw display on Friday 28th September when winner was announed. This display was fantastic and I think of all the displays this was the best. It fitted in exactly with the music used. Does anyone out there know the name of the tune and artist
that I think was second to the end. I think there was a man and a woman singing and it sounded a little classical.
Any information would be appreciated.

brilliant fireworks but very disappointed at the decision to announce the UK as the winner. I think the judges must have been wearing blinkers or something. Austria were BY FAR better than UK. everyone I went with felt the same way. If i was Austria id probably not want to come back ever again when decisions like that are made. Portugal were also pretty good IMHO. Is this the eurovision song contest of fireworks perhaps. ie daft judging.
