As Brisbane gears up for Riverfire 2013, plan your best viewing spot FIRE AND WATER: Brisbane's skyline will light up again for the annual event. BRISBANE'S skyline will be in the pink on Saturday night when Riverfire takes the Brisbane Festival out with a bang. More than 6000 fireworks will go up in smoke including a new pink range to match the festival's colour theme. In pictures: Dry run for great gig in the sky Last year's Riverfire saw 480,000 people line the banks of the river, and organisers are expecting a similar turnout this year in the best vantage points. Technical director Jono Perry isn't giving too much away, but says there will be something different for regular Riverfire-goers That includes some new special effects for the Story Bridge and a tribute to Expo "88. ``There'll be a little moment that people will cause people to reminisce," he says. The 20-minute display will be accompanied by a medley of 17 songs. Perry says it is a balance between tunes people like to hear and those they may not usually listen to. ``We're taking them on a journey and giving them something a little bit different that they wouldn't normally listen to or consider," he says. Perry says the city's geography means every vantage point offers a different show. "You're never going to get the same show every year,"" he says. ``If people have got favourite spots maybe this year just try something different.
