Must visit place. The fountain dances on the tune of the song which creates a unique experience. It’s best seen at dusk as the lightning creates a great experience. The only concern is our experience lasted only two songs and there was plenty of time before the park was supposed to close.

Nice beautiful place, in front of famous Victoria Memorial... one of the famous evening attraction of the City of Joy... airy Maidan Brigade Ground... beautiful musical and colourful fountain is the main attraction of this place... nearest metro station is Maidan Metro station or Park Street Metro station...

Situated opposite Victorial Memorial at the Maidan this Fountain with multi colour light display is a treat to enjoy in the evening and was gifted to the city by the CESC...
It was reopened on 24th December 2018 in a new look...
Now one can view musical fountain with light show...
The gate opens around 5 in the evening...maybe it would change during summer season...
However the fence outside this attraction is a free for all pee zone...😡😡...especially by the vendors outside and some of the visitors...
