8:00  Puerto Vallarta International Fireworks Festival

Puerto Vallarta will play host to the 2014 International Fireworks Festival from December 20 through 31st.

In 2008, as part of Puerto Vallarta's 90th Anniversary celebration, a National Fireworks Competition turned the Puerto Vallarta Sports Stadium into a dazzling fiesta full of bright lights and colors.

Fireworks manufacturers and other members of the pyrotechnic industry from four different countries: Italy, USA, Canada and Spain; and five states of the Mexican Republic: Jalisco, Puebla, Zacatecas, Sonora and Mexico State; are expected to participate in the festival.

In addition to giving pyrotechnical showmen from around the world the chance to showcase their various disciplines and specialties, the 11 day (and night) event will deliver a variety of cultural activities, including music, dance, and art exhibitions.

Fireworks will be set off from three points: Los Muertos Pier, the Malecón, and Peninsula. The pyrotechnic displays will have Banderas Bay area-related themes, be set to music, and will last approximately 20 minutes each.

This is a great time to get on the water and see some fabulous fireworks!
