Philippines (Opening by Platinum Fireworks) – To be Announced

Australia (Howards and Sons) - Aurora Borealis

THE GREAT SOUTHERN LIGHT Aurora Borealis is the great southern light that lights up night skies in the southern hemisphere over Australia and Antarctica. In the same manner Australia is the light of the southern hemisphe…re that attracts so many people from other cultures. This display is an attempt to show the diversity of our country not only in its geography but the ever growing range of cultures that have become integrated into our culture.From the beginning of time with arrival of the Australian Indigenous Australians, the arrival if the white Europeans and Chinese in search of gold and fortune, to the arrival of post war migrants of the 60s in search of employment to the current time with the arrival of people all over the globe seeking a new future in a time of unrest, Australia remains the glowing light Downunder.

World Pyro Olympics 2009

Updated: 07/10/09

The World Pyro Olympics is moving to a new location which means that this year it will have new rules, new shows, new effects and new participants

This year, the World Pyro Olympics is packing up and moving to Fort Bonifacio, Taguig City. The competition for this year is already looking promising because, this year it will be a pyromusical competition. Each of the 10 shows that will be presented are going to be synchronized to music and is now worthy to be called a Pyromusical. As promising as the competitions is, the list of participants this year can only tell us that the World Pyro Olympics 2009 will only bring up the competition to a much higher level. This year’s schedule is as follows:

14 November – Korea and USA
21 November – Germany and China
28 November – Japan and Australia
05 December – Canada and Italy
12 December – Highlights from the participants — La Mancha Group International (closing display)

We should watch how Parente will try to defend their title as The Champions and at the same time we must watch out how the other participants try to get the most coveted World Pyro Olympics trophy. I’m sure that the shows this year will be much complex than the show’s we’ve seen in the past. Since they moved the competition in The fort we must expect a wider firing pad and ofcourse more one shots (I Wish). More Updates are coming soon This event will be held from November 14 to December 12 2009, Every Saturdays
