Herrenhausen's sky lights up again!
Every year, the International Fireworks Competition invites world-renowned pyrotechnics teams to put on unique fireworks shows in the Great Garden on five dates between May and September. Under the motto "New Nations - New Spirits", this year we welcome teams from unprecedented countries to the unique setting of the Baroque Garden.
Each firework display begins with a standardised compulsory piece - this year an excerpt from the main theme of the popular cult fantasy series Game of Thrones, performed by the NDR Radiophilharmonie. In the following 25-minute free freestyle display, the teams bring artistic stories to the sky through magnificent firework displays to their own music.
Typical local cuisine and a hectare-large picnic area, live music and walk acts as well as hands-on activities for children shorten the waiting time until the highlight of the evening.
Be enchanted by first-class fireworks in the Herrenhausen Gardens and experience top-class pyrotechnics on five evenings.
