▶ Fireworks BGM Recommended by Embassy Staff! We have condensed traditional folk music and modern pop songs sung in Nordic languages into a 15-minute program exclusively for this fireworks display. Enjoy a special moment watching large flowers bloom in the night sky and over the lake, accompanied by popular music from the region. Don't miss the emotional moment when music and fireworks synchronize to paint the night sky!
