Sydney's New Year of "Creation"

"MORE than a million revellers have ushered in 2009 in Sydney, watching in wonder as spectacular bursts of
fireworks lit up the night sky"
The Australian, January 1, 2009

Foti International Fireworks was again proud to help Sydney maintain it's reputation as the place to be on New Year's Eve, producing Sydney's traditional fireworks spectacular. Record crowds witnessed the "Creation"-themed display launched from seven barges, seven city rooftops as well as the iconic Sydney Harbour Bridge.

In partnership with the City of Sydney the display was executed flawlessly. "We feel a responsibility to Sydney and Australia to get this display right and to make it as new and special as possible", said Foti family patriach Sam Foti. "Receiving so many positive comments from people after the display, especially comments saying that this year's display was by far the best ever, vindicates the hard work and preparation we all put in."
