I was at the Geneva fireworks show this year too (7.8.10). Geneva show is one of the best and the largest in Swiss. A massive crowd of around half-a-million attended the show. The fireworks show marks the last day of the week-long Geneva festival (Fetes de Geneva) which was a great success thanks to Geneva spending 4+ million CHF for the whole week's festival!!
The fireworks were launched from several boats in the Geneva lake in sync with the music played. Last year, there was a tune from Lagaan movie! This year, they had some "circus" theme: there was a tune with screaming of elephants! It was not clear for me: how exactly the musical theme translates to different patterns of fireworks. But each moment was an amazing ever-changing painting on the sky. Even though it was a 4th fireworks show for me, I was thrilled with every bit of it.
Here are a few photos and videos.
