Team Australia rocks the Celebration of Light 2016 (PHOTOS & VIDEOS)

Australia means business when it comes to fireworks.

The land down under planned a “Live and Loud” theme for their fireworks spectacular to give their display a concert-like feel.

Thousands of people gathered along the shores of English Bay and Kits Beach to watch more than 6,500 fireworks light up the night sky set to tunes by KD Lang, Coldplay, AC/DC, Pink, and Robbie Williams.

Next up on Saturday, July 30 will be the much-anticipated team USA show, which is being produced by the Walt Disney Company.
