OREANDA-NEWS. September 09, 2011. Tens of thousands of people at Pivdenny Buh quay in Vinnitsa attended the festive opening of a unique light show Roshen Fountain. This wonderful work of engineering art is a gift of Roshen Confectionery Corporation to Vinnitsa and whole Ukraine, reported the press-centre of Roshen.    

From now on all those who wish may watch the unique show regularly. The powerful water streams rise up under the music accompaniment and light and laser effects as well as video projection on the huge screen. By the totality of characteristics, Roshen Fountain in Vinnitsa is the biggest in Europe, and according to the experts it is one of the top 10 beautiful and spectacular world fountains. The height of the central stream is 65 to 70 m, the dimensions of the water projection screen is about 16 m high and 45 m wide.

Unlike most of the fountain systems installed in the artificial swimming pools with water treatment systems, the uniqueness of this project is that the fountain uses the water of the ‘living’ river. Vinnitsa fountain show uses the superpower LED lamps allowing to create an extremely bright and spectacular underwater illumination, yielding the magnificent effects. Contrarily to most of Ukrainian fountains, Roshen Fountain contains the mobile elements rotating around their axis, due to which the water streams inclination angles vary dynamically. The sonic power of the audio system is 3840 W.

The Fountain is a part of a complex project of Pivdenny Buh quay reconstruction near Roshen confectionery factory in Vinnitsa. Within the project framework the bank line 700 m long was reinforced, the pedestrian and recreational areas as well as an amphitheater for fountain show watching were arranged. This is the first social and cultural project in the Ukraine’s history of such a scale which was implemented for funds of a private company.
