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. Despite inclement weather on June 29, the event proved a huge success and once again showcased the beauty of our waterfront. Pictures and story on page 9.
