The sparkling display began after a count down led by Newham Mayor Sir Robin Wales.
Sir Robin said: "It's always fantastic to see different generations of families enjoying themselves at our free events. This was a fantastic show and it's a great credit to all those who worked hard behind the scenes to make it happen. I look forward to seeing even more people at next year's event."
A space-themed soundtrack played as the fireworks began, matched by the crowd's delight at the spectacle.
