For two weeks in August, the skies over Putrajaya are to be lit up by a sequence of firework performances to celebrate Malaysia ‘s 50th year of Nationhood. The Malaysia International Fireworks Competition, or MIFC, will be a festival of light, music, colour and culture; providing magical experiences for all that attend in the lead-up to Malaysia ‘s Merdeka Day, Hari Merdeka. During MIFC, renowned international firework teams from around the world will gather in Malaysia to compete in one of the world’s greatest Musical Fireworks Competitions. Regular fireworks displays will be dwarfed by the pyrotechnic artistry at Putrajaya. The shows will be meticulously choreographed to music; the senses will be thrilled by dazzling incandescent displays that will dance to inspirational compositions. For at least twenty minutes on each competitive night, the maestros of the night will amaze spectators with breathtaking presentations, judged by a panel of celebrities, who will select a winner. The victorious team will receive a prestigious award but their ultimate trophy is the audience delight!
