This was supposed to be my first time to watch the
World Pyrolympics. I was sure people will be scrambling for tickets. And I also did not want to endure hours and hours of jammed up traffic or looking for a parking spot. Also imagine the crowds and the race to get a decent view of the fireworks display. No way! So I was all set to watch it on a dinner cruise around Manila Bay. But the
World Pyrolympics 2008 was postponed again to May! And it sucks big time since it's the nth time they moved it! Since I'll be out in May, I'll have to wait until next year.
Here is the new schedule. The organizers said the dates are already sure since they will be selling tickets next week:
May 3 | China and Germany |
May 10 | Japan and Canada |
May 17 | Italy and Venezuela |
May 24 | France and Korea |
May 31 | Australia and Philippines |
hi, i'm so looking forward to the world pyro cruise too, but do you happen to know where i could buy tickets. thanks
ReplyDeleteWe were going to cruise in a private yacht. I'll let you know the details when the Pyrolympics is really finalized. It's so hard to plan given their unpredictability. You can also check Prestige Cruises since they have daily cruises.
ReplyDeleteHere are the details for the dinner cruise:
ReplyDeleteUp Close. In Private. On a Yacht.
Forget the hours and hours of jammed up traffic and fighting tooth and nail for a parking spot. Forget the crowd and the race to get at least a decent view of the fireworks display.
This year, join us on a 4-hour cruise around Manila Bay and the best seats in the house are yours. No crowds. No commotion. No craziness. So you can just sit back, relax, put your feet up and enjoy the most spectacular international fireworks competition light up the sky.
We can accommodate up to 20 people per trip. Price is P 1,800/head*, inclusive of dinner buffet and drinks.
Assembly Time: 5:15 PM, Manila Yacht Club
Departure: 5:45 PM
Arrival: 10:00 PM, Manila Yacht Club
