Lake Festival – On the first
Saturday of August the bay of Albigny welcomes
the biggest pyrotechnic show of
Europe…80 minutes of fireworks in rhythm
with music, lights, special effects…It
is the kind of show that you have to see at
least once in your life!
Born from the great “Venetian
style” party of 1860 on the lake in
honour of Napoleon the 3rd, this event has
evolved and integrated all the new technologies
of fireworks.
Grandiose, unexpected, this is a unique
production, played only always inducing the
same interest from the 200,000 people gathered
near the lake.
