Canada’s biggest summertime event returns to Vancouver in just a few weeks, and this year promises to be more exciting than ever.

The 31st Honda Celebration of Light will take place over English Bay in late July, with three heavyweights in the global fireworks display industry from three different continents coming to strut their stuff.

This year also marks the 10th anniversary of Honda being the title sponsor of the beloved event, and to celebrate, it is awarding one lucky person a huge prize: an exclusive behind-the-scenes look at the world-class production.
