MONTREAL – The city’s International Fireworks Competition kicks off its 30th edition Saturday night, and Germany has the honour of going first.

The fireworks will be held every Saturday until August 2, with two additional displays on Wednesday, July 16 and 23.
Italy, Spain, Australia, Canada, the U.S. and France will also display.
The competition will be capped off by an homage to Pink Floyd on August 2 by a non-competing group from Quebec.
The organization behind the fireworks competition pegs the number of fans at around three million. It’s the most prestigious of its kind in the world.
