1997: Royal Easter Show Fireworks show (rare footage)

With the Easter Show now underway at Sydney Olympic Park, I recently came across a video on YouTube from Pyrostar International, which contained footage from the very last fireworks spectacular at Moore Park at the 1997 Royal Easter Show.



I do miss the old main arena at Moore Park. The Member's Stand was retained largely as part of the Fox Studios development (minus the seating area).

I have noticed from watching various fireworks shows over the years at Olympic Park that many elements have been retained but technology has allowed for the experience to be enhanced especially the use of lighting effects and that works well with the smoke that is emitted from the exploding shells.

  1. The Homebush location lacks soul, and the buildings seem so cheap and temporary. And without the sky cabins and cable chairs it's just not the same.
