Water Fire

I was in Providence this past weekend.  There was a Water Fire event in the downtown.  


Rows of pillars run down the center of the river.  On top of each is a brazier, a holder for logs.
After dark, staff light the logs and huge loudspeakers project music.  Water Fire is a popular event.
The river banks and nearby parks are full of people.  Great fun.

    Fascinating to see a sight like this in the dark of the night.

    Seems like a great event. Do the authorities have to pull many people out of the water? Fine night photo.

    Water Fire? That's new to me. Very dramatic! Are the pillars permanent, or just placed there for the event?
