[UPDATE] The Executive Committee of the World Pyro Olympics (WPO) 09 announces the postponement of the WPO originally set on November 28, December 5, 12 and 19, at the Bonifacio Global City to a later date early next year.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Ticket holders are requested to contact WPO hotline 568-6908 \/ 384-0239 or log on to www.worldpyroolympics.com<\/a> for more details.<\/p>\n
