15-minute fireworks displays, from midnight of February 10th, will welcome the Lunar New Year 2013 at 29 different locations.

3,100 aerial fireworks will be shot at the Hoan Kiem Lake, the Thong Nhat Park (Hai Ba Trung District), the Lac Long Quan Flower Garden (Tay Ho), the Van Quan Lake (Ha Dong) and the My Dinh National Stadium (Tu Liem), while ground fireworks, 90 rounds each, will be shot at 24 districts, such as Ba Dinh, Hoang Mai, Long Bien, Dong Da, Cau Giay, Gia Lam and Thanh Tri.

According Hanoi’s leadership, the districts can increase the number of firework rounds from their own budgets, but not over 135 rounds.
