The City of Melbourne estimates more than 60,000 people attended the festival’s third year, where giant flame jets, fire performers, flaming cauldrons and an hourly laser- light show transformed Victoria Harbour.

On February 4, a spectacular fireworks display was shot off a barge in Victoria Harbour, just as it used to be on New Year’s Eves before the City of Melbourne stopped the practice in 2016.
