The signature Jarvis Light Up experience
Fireworks
like no other.
This is not a fireworks display with music playing in the background. Every burst, colour, special effect and musical moment is designed and choreographed together to create one complete live production.
“Be here. Feel every moment.”
The show is made to be watched and heard at Jarvis Light Up. The soundtrack, timing and atmosphere are what turn the fireworks into an experience—and they simply cannot be fully captured from somewhere else.

The whole town is the attraction
The Christmas
decorating contest.
