The World Pyro Olympics (WPO) 2009 is the biggest and the brightest show this year!
WPO will be showcased at the Bonifacio Global City on November 21, 28, December 5, 12, and 19 with eight countries showcasing breathtaking pyrotechnics displays. This years stellar list of participating countries include South Korea, China, Germany, Australia, Japan, Italy, Canada and the U.S.
Two countries fire each Saturday with a dazzling finale on December 19 featuring a Fellowship of Fire where all participants will each have a show; plus an exhibition from the host country, Philippines.
Now on its fourth year WPO 2009 will be an entirely different visual spectacle with the introduction of the pyro-musical - combining state-of-the-art fireworks displays and computer technology, with fireworks gracefully choreographed to music.
Always a crowd drawer, this years event will be a one-stop fun event for the whole family drum and bugle competitions, bazaars, play areas for kids, food booths and other live entertainment. There will also be photo and video contests and exhibits.
Spearheading this event is La Mancha of Manila, an award-winning Filipino-based pyrotechnics group that bagged second place at the 9th International Fireworks Festival in Zagreb, Croatia this summer.
I suppose this is held every year, correct?
And is it always in the Phillipines (and same city)?
I'd love to go! Maybe something to do next year :)
