They were good last night. Didn't think much of the Disney music but the overall display was decent. The nice weather helped.

Agree - the music was lacking and also the PA system wasn't that great either. Still not fussed about things like artistic impression etc - being an expat of small brain I am happy with just bright lights and loud bangs.

Am currently on first beach and the weather is fantastic, hot with a small breeze. Will certainly be a good night for fireworks!
