Walt Disney Pictures Fireworks Intro.

In the Bin Yang region of Nanning, Guangxi, China, they celebrate each Chinese New Year with a famous festival.

Held on the 11^th day of the Chinese New Year (also known as the Lunar New Year, or in China, just “The New Year”) Bin Yang is the central attraction of the whole province bringing in half a million locals and visitors to the region to join in the celebrations which include parades, floats (very American), lantern festival and of course the dragon dance in firecrackers.

This local festival has a centuries old history attached to it with its beginnings in the Song Dynasty (960 – 1279), the development into something closer to what we see today happened during the Ming Dynasty (1368 -1644) and finding its place in history and in the cultural calendars of China in the Qing Dynasty (1644 – 1911). In other words, it did not happen overnight. This is a festival that has grown and developed over the centuries to become what it is today and is steeped in history and culture. This is what has made the Bin Yang Firecracker Dragon Festival so intense and famous across China.

Now let’s see some firecracker dragon dancing!

videos of the awesome fireworks from Skyfest in Limerick 2010. The whole of Limerick was illuminated by these fantastic fireworks set over King Johns Castle. This video was shot from the opposite bank of the River Shannon and shows of the fireworks quite nicely. A great night for Limerick and a great party in the streets and bars afterwards.

The Skyfest Fireworks were just the start of events celebrating St Patricks Day on Wednesday 17th March. We hope you enjoy the video of the fireworks. For more info on Skyfest in Limerick click here.
