    Hi there Canada!!
    
    	Does anyone know where and when the Benson & Hedges International
    Fireworks Competition is going to be held?  I was told by a friend
    that it is this summer either in Montreal or Toronto.
    Thanks in advance!!!!

       The fireworks were held at the end of June and beginning of July
    at Ontario Place in Toronto.  I'm not sure who won.

81.2Where again???MQOU06::E_LEDUCThu Jul 21 1988 17:3418
    I would like to make a few corrections here...
    
    The original INTERNATIONAL FIREWORKS COMPETITION is held in MONTREAL
    at the beginning of the summer.
    
    About 6 to 7 different countries present their fireworks (All musical)
    and are evaluated.
    
    There is a listing of the winners:
    
    	1st	SPAIN
    	2nd 	GERMANY
    	3rd	USA
    or something like that (Maybe not in this order).
    
    Maybe TORONTO wants all the fame, but MONTREAL has alot to show...

81.3Clarification for the nationTRCA03::OBRIENTue Jul 26 1988 20:428
    The Benson and Hedges International is the event held in Montreal.

    The Benson and Hedges Symphony of Fire, the international fireworks
    display, was held between June 25 and July 10. The countries
    participating were Canada, Italy, France, and the U.K.  Sorry, I don't
    know for sure, but I believe that France won.
