Montreal International Fireworks Competition
Spectacular to behold, Montreal’s annual international fireworks competition is the largest event of its kind in the world. Each year about 8 teams from different countries compete for putting on the most impressive pyromusical display for a minimum of 30 minutes.
This popular event is allegedly watched by nearly 2.5 million people who have a good view from various spots in the Montreal city limits. You can have paid seats at La Ronde. Or, other good viewing points are Jacques Cartier bridge (closed to traffic for the duration), along the banks of the St Lawrence and in Vieux Montreal.
