Wow that's pricey. I remember going to the same event in Ottawa and seats were ~$20 and that was worth it, no way I'm paying $50.

it's funny. Every year I hear that this show will be cancelled.
And every year (since three years ago), i've been pleasantly surprised it is still on!

btw "Limited Early Bird tickets are only $35 plus tax and service charge, and are available through Tickets Tonight."
edit; my bad...
"Early Bird $43.45 includes all taxes and fees.
Price:$54.90 includes all taxes and fees."

if you enjoy fireworks on the beach, half the fun of it (when i was younger anyway) was meeting up with friends early, getting a spot, chillin on the beach, and waiting for the fireworks. the actual fireworks was just the icing on the cake to a great day on the beach. i would never pay 50 bucks for a damn seat!

Hmmmmmmmmmmmm selling fireworks tickets eh?

Who here has a home theatre room?

1) Projector and big ass subwoofer.
2) Turn up the heat in your house. Add a bright ass lamp.
3) Throw in some sand. Hire random douches to come by and step all over your shit/kick sand all over your shit every 2 minutes.
4) Turn off lights. Stick in Blu-ray recording of fireworks.
5) ???
6) Profit.

I've always wondered if you could just sit on Burrard Bridge sidewalk and watch? Anyone tried that?

fliptuner 04-11-2011 09:41 PM

Yup. Went for drinks at Moxies on Broadway and walked down to the bridge and watched a couple of years ago.

Last time, when the show started, the bride basically became a parking lot.

Santofu 07-25-2011 01:46 PM

Where can I rent a boat and how much does it cost per hour?

Beach is just like before - free. The bleachers are just extra income from the ballers who want to spend $55 for a 1/2 hour show.

TRDeol 07-25-2011 02:36 PM

Isnt there normally 4 shows?

TOS'd 07-25-2011 02:44 PM

3 and 1 finale.
