The contingent from Bohol, Wow Fireworks, won the judges’ approval and was crowned “Sinulog Pyro King” in last night’s fireworks competition hosted by SM City Cebu.

Cebu’s Avila Fireworks placed second while the fireworks makers from Rizal, Sky Intensity, landed third.

Diamond Fireworks of Bulacan and JVZ of Laguna placed fourth and fifth.
