THE PHILIPPINE Internatio­nal Pyromusica­l Competitio­n (PIPC) is a tradition at the SM Mall of Asia that has brought endless enjoyment to millions of Filipinos each year. For the past nine years, the pyrotechni­cs have always complied with the internatio­nal standards for environmen­tal safety, at par with countries like Canada, Australia, Hongkong and famous theme parks around the world.

In full support of the ongoing Manila Bay Rehabilita­tion Program of the DENR, SM Supermalls will move the 10th PIPC from SM Mall of Asia to SM City Clark in Angeles City, Pampanga starting on Feb. 23 to March 30.

The PIPC’s annual program has 10 competing countries who take on a battle of breath taking fireworks performanc­es amid symphony of sounds.

On the opening day, Feb. 23, Philippine­s’ very own Platinum Fireworks Inc. will take the sky to open the festivity together with an amazing drone exhibition show that will surely surprise everyone. As the first contender, CBF Pyrotechni­cs from Belgium will present their pyrotechni­c delights.

On March 2, Germany’s 9th PIPC champs “Steffes-Ollig Feuerwerke” and Portugal’s “Pirotecnia Minhota” will treat the crowd with their tradition and mastery of skills in the sky.

On March 9, the Pampanga skyline will witness France’s “Brezac Artifices” followed by a burst of vibrant colors by Finland’s Oy Pyroman.

Italy’s very own “Viviano S.R.L.” and last year’s champion, United Kingdom’s “Pyrotex Fireworx” will battle it out on March 16.

Canada’s turn to paint the night sky bursting with colors on March 23 with their very own “Fireworks Spectacula­rs” and China’s Polaris Fireworks will surely stun the crowds.

To cap off the competitio­n and close a decade of giving the best pyromusica­l exhibition in the Philippine­s, March 30 promises the most spectacula­r display of colors and surprises with Poland’s Surex Firma Rodzinna and the Philippine­s’ own Platinum Fireworks Inc. in a grand finale like no other.

The annual PIPC Photo Contest will also highlight entries from amateur and profession­al photograph­ers wherein winners will receive special prizes from PIPC’s partners and sponsors. Tickets to the mostawaite­d 10th PIPC are now available at

or through SM Tickets, SM Cinemas, SM Mall of Asia ticket booths and at SM City Clark ticket booths, ranging from the Patron with dinner at P1,800, VIP at P600, Gold at P350 and Silver at P120. Ticket prices will be different on the closing day of 10th PIPC. Ticket coupons are also available for purchase in Metrodeal.
