From the Sydney’s Harbour Bridge to Montreal’s Jacques-Cartier Bridge:
The company that designed the fireworks display for the 2000 Olympic Games is at
L’International des Feux Loto-Québec presented by TELUS!

Montreal, Thursday, July 2, 2009 – Foti International, the Australian fireworks company that lights up the sky above Sydney’s famous Harbour Bridge annually to celebrate the New Year, will put on a show this Saturday at L’International des Feux Loto-Québec presented by TELUS. Its goal isn’t to ring in the New Year but to strike gold – a Gold Jupiter! With a Silver Jupiter in 2001 and Bronze in 2006, this year, Foti International has its eyes on the top prize.

In addition to its annual light-and-sound spectacle above one of Sydney’s landmarks, just next to the famous Opera House, Foti International put on the fireworks display for the opening and closing ceremonies of the Games of the 27th Olympiad in 2000 – a dream for any pyrotechnics professional!

In fact, dreams – along with fantasy, imagination, and magic – are the theme of the show, which is titled “Dreamcatcher,” a reference also to the Native North American object designed to protect its owner from nightmares. The creators of the show, Tino and Fortunato Foti, say they designed their “Dreamcatcher” to snare the public’s attention and interest.

To do so, they’ve put together a “dream” soundtrack that includes songs such as “Magical Mystery Tour,” “Xanadu,” “The Great Gig in the Sky,” “When You Wish upon a Star,” and “Somewhere,” to name only a few. Expect pyrotechnics featuring dazzling colours and astoundingly precise timing. Foti manufactures its fireworks in Australia and in China. Foti International is certainly used to world travel: in the early 1950s, Celestino Foti moved his whole family to Australia from Italy, where the company got its start in… 1793!
