For a festive season-opener the shore promenade and attractions of the on the Rhine river laid towns Linz, Erpel, Remagen, Unkel, Rheinbreitbach, Bad Honnef, Konigswinter and Bonn are lit in the red fluorescent glow of 2000 "Bengal Fire" lights.

The red fluorescent Bengal Fire lights the way downstream for a fleet of more than 60 decorated and illuminated ships along a 26 km stretch - the longest stretch of any Rhine in Flames spectacle.

Special highlights of this event will be the fireworks in Linz, Remagen, Bad Honnef, on the opposite of Konigswinter and the big finale of the firework in the Bonn Rhine river floodplain (former horticultural show terrain)
