Do the words flash pots, gerbs, comets, wheels and airbursts mean anything to you? Unless you're a display pyrotechnician, probably not. But you can forget the technical terms. We all understand fireworks, those shimmering, sparkling explosions of colour, light and sound that coax "oohs" and "aahs" from enthralled crowds all around the world. Melbourne's next feast of fireworks will illuminate the winter skies at Docklands Winter Fireworks .


[ADVERT]If spending your Friday Nights at Monet's Garden doesn't appeal and if the free [LINK=http://www.weekendnotes.com/the-light-in-winter-federation-square/ Light in Winter Festival][/LINK] hasn't brightened your life enough to block out the winter chills, here's your opportunity to light up your life in a noisier way. Don your coats, hats, winter woolies, and your childish sense of wonder and head to Docklands on Friday evenings in July for a weekly dose of winter sky magic, presented by the City of Melbourne. Victoria Harbour will reverberate with volleys of booming, crackling, whistling explosions but it won't just be the fireworks you'll hear. Each ten minute display will be choreographed to an accompanying musical soundtrack, which you'll be able to hear along the promenade.

Below is a video of Melbourne's spectacular 2012 Winter Fireworks 'Spooky Spectacular' display so you can get an idea of what may be in store.



This is free family fun so arrive early to get a great vantage point and enjoy the roving entertainment that will spread the love around Docklands. And when it's all over and the smell of smoke lingers in the frosty air, warm yourself up with a meal or drink at one of the many nearby cafes or restaurants.

Details
When: Friday nights in July and August
Where: The Piazza at Docklands, 429 - 437 Docklands Drive, Docklands. Vantage points around Victoria Harbour and Docklands.
