Busan, Korea's southern port city, will host its annual fireworks display on Gwangalli Beach on Saturday, officials announced on Monday. The spectacular show, set to commence at 7 p.m., will last an hour and commence with a 15-minute performance by China's Sunny Fireworks. Following that, a 30-minute show by Korea's Hanwha Corp. will take center stage, featuring 25-inch shells, waterfall-style "Niagara" fireworks, and multimedia lighting on the iconic Gwangan Bridge. A five-minute "curtain call" will serve as a heartfelt thank you to citizens and festival staff.
Prior to the fireworks display, the Korean Air Force's aerobatic team, the Black Eagles, will present an air show at 4 p.m., complementing beach activities and performances by local indie bands. The city has allocated approximately 17,000 paid seats for the event, an increase of about 3,000 compared to last year. These additional seats have been reserved for foreign tourists and can be purchased through overseas travel agencies and online platforms.
