Madeira Bigger Than America

For the United States the ‘Fourth of July’ and fireworks go together like hamburgers and hot dogs and Americans LOVE their fireworks, but the biggest display that ever took place was in Madeira in December 2006.



In 37 launch sites spread across the island of Madeira, pyrotechnics experts set off no less than 66,326 individual fireworks.

In fact, Madeira snagged a Guinness World Record for the largest fireworks display in the world that year.

One might say that the natural beat of the island is a continuous fireworks display due to the perpetual pulsing festivities this paradise offers to natives and visitors.
