fountain show

Choreographed water display

A fountain show is a choreographed display where jets of water move in synchronized patterns, typically set to music and enhanced with colored lights.

Las Vegas and Dubai are famous for elaborate fountain shows that draw tourists.

The water shoots, arcs, and pulses in time with the soundtrack: We watched the fountain show outside the Bellagio.
