Major fireworks displays

Between the island and the riverbank

The equipment is set up on Puteaux Island and the audience on the opposite bank, facing the river.

Three techniques combined to create a single performance

The programme combines a traditional fireworks display, a light show and flame generators, three techniques with very different logics that we made work together. Each technique comes in at a specific point in the programme.

A site on a peninsula, with limited access

The firing area, situated on the Puteaux peninsula, is accessible only via a limited number of access points, which complicates the transport of pyrotechnic and lighting equipment, as well as flame generators. Our teams therefore have a short set-up window, scheduled as close as possible to the event, before the audience arrives.

The river as an element of safety and presentation

By naturally separating the firing area from the public, the Seine simplifies part of the safety arrangements, and the fire, flames and light are reflected in the water.

A display set up on a 100-metre barge

For this display on a barge, we stabilised the platform, used a crane to position the pyrotechnic equipment and precisely aligned each firing point on a floating surface subject to the current.

Biodegradable products to protect the River Seine

As the display took place directly above the Seine, we chose biodegradable pyrotechnic effects to limit pollution of the water and riverbanks after the display.

One soundtrack for two towns

For this display shared between Asnières-sur-Seine and Clichy, we proposed a single soundtrack for both banks.
