Honda Celebration of Light - July 20th - Portugal

The Vancouver Fireworks Festival Society is the not-for-profit society that oversees the Celebration of Light Fireworks Festival, the longest-running offshore fireworks competition in the world. Established in 2001 and run by a dedicated volunteer Board of Directors, the primary aim of the Society is to bring the community together for a free family fun event and to ensure the long-lasting sustainability of the event in Vancouver.

In 2024, the Honda Celebration of Light will celebrate its 32nd anniversary to bring the communities back together over three spectacular days and nights.

The participating countries this year are Portugal, Malaysia, and the United Kingdom.

So be the part of this annual celebration and enjoy food, music, activations, and more before the pyrotechnic team Portugal performs over the shores of English Bay.

The fireworks start at 10 PM prompt each evening.
