Astana Expo

Astana Expo’s magic came from one of Fluidra’s stunning water show fountains

Magic curtains, colored lights, water that moves to the rhythm of music and that shoots up into the sky with the power of a natural geyser. Blasts of flames and amazing shafts of light. The innovative technology behind the fountains in Astana (Kazakhstan) is just one of the latest advances in the complex that staged the Astana Expo on the future of energy. Would you like to take a walk with us to see this fountain up close? This exhibit, devoted to the most innovative technology, attracted four million visitors who were greeted by a monumental fountain designed by Fluidra and Aqua Engineering that danced to magical music. Just a few technical details will give an idea of its monumental size: a surface area of 2,630 m2, a water volume of 1,618 m3, 12 kilometers of power cables and a network of 8 kilometers of piping. What’s more, its almost unlimited combinations of light and color, and a total of 200 lights can create 16 million colors! That’s not all! This magic fountain has a number of jets: vertical, dancing and rocket jets that shoot out the water an explosive 30 meters from the ground. AstralPool has even included a completely safe device able to shoot colored flames into the air alongside the water. A unique customized set-up designed with a groundbreaking filtration, disinfection and software control system.

It is also possible to walk around the magic fountain of Astana up to a raised bridge on which the sheer power of the water can be felt and the light show seen. The complex also stages projects for smart lighting systems, geographic information systems, and various publicly or privately funded schemes.
