PyroFest lets fireworks-makers show off skills
Pittsburgh's ongoing fascination with fireworks doesn't surprise the folks at New Castle's Pyrotecnico. “Fireworks is a form of entertainment that stimulates all of one's senses, a moment of stepping out of reality and into the magical journey a display takes you on,” says Stephen Vitale, president and CEO of the family-owned fireworks and special-effects company that has been designing award-winning shows for more than 120 years. Each journey is unique and special, he says; yet, the joy and smiles are shared among families, friends and communities as a whole. “Fireworks simply create that incomparable memory that delights people of all ages and unites communities,” Vitale says.
