Dubbed “Taguig Global Countdown and Street Party 2009,” the event will be highlighted by a full-scale, world-class fireworks display, which is said to be the biggest the country has yet to stage.
Taguig City Mayor Sigfrido Tiñga said segments of the award-winning pyrotechnics show have been displayed in key international cities such as Macau, China and Hannover, Germany.
Fort Bonifacio’s entertainment venues and restaurants such as Embassy Supperclub, Jack’s, Jill’s, Members Only, Mint, Piedra,Prince of Jaipur, Hierarchy, Pasto, Trio, Magnet Bar and Ascend are set to bring their bars out to the streets.
Tiñga said this is the first time that a New Year countdown will be held in Taguig. “We, Filipinos, have always been fascinated by how other cities worldwide welcome and celebrate the changing of the year. They have spectacular fireworks and really festive celebrations in the streets. This time, it will happen here,” Tiñga said.
The lights display will be provided by La Mancha Pyrotechnics, an international award-winning fireworks manufacturer.
