| Celebration of Light 2012
Welcome to the Honda Celebration of Light website! 2012 is a new year and with it brings a new Title Sponsor, new festivities and new participating countries!
Competing this year at the Honda Celebration of Light:
Vietnam: Saturday July 28th
Brazil: Wednesday August 1st
Italy: Saturday August 4th
There will be lots of fun activities happening each day before the fireworks begin. Head down to Sunset Beach around 2:00PM prior to the fireworks to enjoy live music hosted by SHOREfest, take part in sporting activities put on by Urban Rec, and watch cultural performances as a tribute to the countries participating in the Celebration of Light.
Keep checking back to the website for more information about the bands performing at SHOREfest, ticket updates and more activities to take part in! Don’t forget, this year you have the opportunity to vote for the country you feel put on the best firework display. All you have to do is revisit the website after the countries have performed, click on the “VOTE” button that will be on the home page, and cast your vote!
Once again, a huge thank you to all of our sponsors who fully support this not-for-profit, civic event!

^ It's a bit of a well-known, but unspoken fact that HSBC is a bank that largely caters to a higher end client. Considering the majority of people who attend the fireworks are typical Joes and Janes, maybe they decided it wasn't the best way to promote their brand?
Honda, on the other hand, is losing the Joes and Janes (its bread and butter customers) to rivals like Hyundai.

I think HSBC is running into a lot of financial difficulties in US and Europe. They have been cutting staff left right and center.
