The annual Canada Day Burrard Inlet Fireworks show, presented by Port Metro Vancouver, caps off a full day of Canada Day at Canada Place festivities. The dazzling two-barge fireworks show extravaganza on July 1, 2013 starts at 10:30 p.m. and will be synchronized to music simulcast on Classic Rock 101 and on the Port Metro Vancouver Mobile App.
The fireworks show is a celebration of not only our nation’s achievements but also the freedom and diversity that we all embrace and enjoy. The two-barge simultaneous fireworks display is based in Burrard Inlet with one barge near Canada Place and the second barge just off Dundrave at West Vancouver. Nearly half a million watch the Canada Day Burrard Inlet Fireworks Show given that it is viewable from several locations and communities.
In addition to radio simulcast on Classic Rock 101, for the first time ever, this year’s Canada Day pyrotechnic display will also be broadcasted live on Shaw TV.
This year, we are excited to announce that Vancity Buzz is an Official Media Partner of Canada Day at Canada Place.
