Archangel Fireworks impresses Vancouver and the World!

On Saturday night Archangel Fireworks shot their first international pyromusical competition, HSBC Celebration of Light in Vancouver B.C. to a crowd of hundreds of thousands of people.
All the long hours our dedicated staff have put in over the past months has paid off, the show was a success!

Archangel Fireworks took their place among world fireworks leaders Spain and China and showed just what a small Manitoba Company can accomplish.

Only a day after the show and we are proudly reading wonderful reviews from newspaper articles to blogs from happy fireworks fans!

From Kirk LaPointes' Column in the Vancouver Sun titled "The Show":
"…Surprise, surprise. A newish Canadian company knocked the socks off the crowd Saturday at the HSBC Celebration of Light, and the warm reception was not merely a matter of rooting for the home team. Even though it is pitted against more experienced teams from Spain and China, the Canadian contingent gave a superlative performance…"

and from the www.canada.com article titled "Canada puts on strong show" written by John Colebourn of The Province:
"…In a dazzling display of lights, Archangel Fireworks Inc. from Manitoba showed they were serious in their first major international fireworks competition.
Those watching the show said the unique pyrotechnical display set to tunes by the Glenn Miller Orchestra, Duke Ellington and Nat King Cole could be a winner with the judges in the three nights of competition…"
