Summer Fireworks -
Queen Victoria Park
Niagara Parks Commission
The Niagara Parks Commission hosts the fireworks displays in the summer and winter seasons in Queen Victoria Park. The David Whysall International Fireworks Company under the direction of owner David Whysall has been contracted to provide these pyrotechnic displays over Niagara Falls.
Whysall has 40 years of experience and has owned his own company for approximately 17 years. All the displays are pre-programmed and the fireworks set off electronically. With a crew of two or three persons, the fireworks are picked from a large inventory and placed into their respective firing tubes (similar to mortar tubes) raging in size from three to six inches. The launching pad is located on the Canadian side of the Niagara River shoreline at the base of the Niagara Gorge (182 feet below). Each show lasts about 4 to 6 minutes in length but the light and sound is truly awe inspiring to the thousands tourists and local citizens who witness this nightly spectacle.
The fireworks light the sky in a kaleidoscope of colours like none other and is a must to experience. It is FIRE OVER THE FALLS.
Fireworks will run at 10:00 PM every Sunday, Wednesday, Friday and Holiday
from May 1 – October 31.
