The 11th Busan Fireworks Festival was successfully held on October 23-24 in the Gwangalli Beach area.
The festival began with an evening concert on October 23rd. Under the theme “Love Begins with a Confession”, tens of thousands of fireworks were launched into the sky from 8:00 to 8:50 p.m. on October 24th. About 1.3 million Korean and overseas visitors came to enjoy the show.
This year, the fireworks were expanded to three launch locations on the sea near Igidae, Gwangalli Beach and Dongbaekseom Island, and the number of fireworks barges increased to ten, so people in more locations could view the spectacular show.
To celebrate the 50th anniversary of the normalization of the Republic of Korea -Japan ties, the fireworks team from Japan presented a fantastic 15-minute show. After that, fireworks on the sea at Tsushima Island celebrated the festival. Unfortunately, this three-minute performance could not be viewed from Busan because of weather conditions. Busan City plans to continue leading long-term relations with Tsushima.
