88 ft (26.8 m) floating Liquid Fireworks show lit in color at night, Florida, USA

Floating fountains · one of our specialties

Floating fountains for lakes and ponds

A Liquid Fireworks® show doesn't need a pool. The whole musical water show can float in a lake, pond or other large body of water: on its own stainless steel floatation that rises and falls with the water level, or on a barge that can be built to look like an island and moved or turned when you want.

The 88 ft (26.8 m) Liquid Fireworks® show in Florida, pictured here, is a floating fountain show.

Resi ballroom, Berlin, 1930s, home of the first dancing fountains

Nearly a century of audiences coming back

An attraction that has outlasted every fad.

In 1928 Otto Przystawik built the original dancing fountains at the Resi ballroom in Berlin, and after World War II, in 1950, he built a new, bigger show there. The show went on to Radio City Music Hall, two World's Fairs, Expo 67 and a 2½-acre (1 ha) lake in Cape Coral, Florida. Novelties fade after a season or two. This one has been booked, rebooked and rebuilt for close to 100 years, because people keep paying to see it again.

His grandson Michael Przystawik runs Waltzing Waters today. The 2028 centennial marks a hundred years of a show that still earns its keep.

The 100-year story Where we've played

“Colored lights flash on and off, reflected in the mirror-mosaic walls and in great revolving balls made of mirror mosaics, which open and shut, disclosing fountains in the center.”

Brooklyn Daily Eagle, Sept. 15, 1929, describing the Resi in Berlin
