For more than 20 years international annual fireworks festival is held from May to September in the Large Garden of the
Hannover Royal Gardens. Pyrotechnics teams from 5 different countries take part in the festival. Each performance lasts 25 minutes and is judged.
Schedule can be found on the
official website of Hannover.
2015At this time we have not been able to buy tickets on the spot, because they were all sold out. Keep this in mind and buy tickets in advance online at
website of Hannover.
Around the gardens are located thousands of people, so it's not easy to find the free place. We were lucky and found a gorgeous location, near the lake. Definitely, this is the best place outside of the gardens. Moreover, there is almost no one was there, only 3-5 spectators.
