The Festival one is also a classical concert (but with an enormous
soundsystem so the 250k people who go (and it's free) can hear).
They do stuff like the Handel Fireworks Music, 1812, Sibelius
Karelia suite and so on and choreograph the fireworks to the music.
Anyone going to be here for that one?
Cheers
Martin
