After a four-year hiatus, the Philippines erupts in color once more. The highly anticipated 11th Philippine International Pyromusical Competition (PIPC) triumphantly returned to SM Mall of Asia (MOA) by the BAY, kicking off with a breathtaking opening night on May 11, 2024. Reclaiming its crown as the grandest spectacle of its kind in the country, PIPC promises a show-stopping performance with an astounding display of symphonic fireworks.

The long wait is over as the 11th Philippine International Pyromusical Competition returns in all its glory to SM by the BAY.

The opening night of the 11th PIPC, the longest-running pyromusical event in the Philippines, treated attendees to a global journey of unparalleled pyrotechnic brilliance and musical harmony.

Attendees have been treated to a kaleidoscope of creative expression, with two different countries taking center stage each week. The Philippines, as the host country, set the stage for this global competition. While they won’t be competing this year, their long history of pyrotechnic excellence is undeniable. From the Netherlands’ mesmerizingly choreographed displays to South Korea’s explosive energy and Australia’s elegantly precise fireworks, each nation captivated audiences with their unique pyrotechnic artistry. Belgium’s display is known for its intricate storytelling elements, while Germany wowed audiences with their technical mastery and synchronized effects.

Prepare for a spectacle of energy and incredible displays, an enthralling experience for all.

The 11th PIPC’s electrifying return promises to ignite imaginations and leave audiences breathless, solidifying its place as a world-class spectacle of theatrical fireworks display. SM MOA, the heart of this extraordinary event, provides the perfect backdrop for these incredible exhibitions that have mesmerized many.
