A Royal Australia Air Force (RAAF) C-17A Globemaster flies near city buildings during a low-level flight over Brisbane, Australia, 26 September 2019.

The flight was a rehearsal for the city’s annual Riverfire event on 28 September.

Riverfire celebrates the end of three weeks of Queensland’s largest arts and cultural event with a pyrotechnic extravaganza.

This is one of the most electrifying fireworks displays in Australia, fired by Foti Fireworks Queensland from multiple bridges, barges and city rooftops, with aerobatics from the Australian Defence Force.
