Grand fireworks display marks Tagum City’s 2020 kickoff
By: Tagum City Information Office
Tagum City – The City of Palms joined the rest of the world as Tagumenyos welcome the start of a new decade with a magnificent show of music, laughs, and lights at the New City Hall Grounds during the city’s Year Start Countdown celebration organized by the City Government of Tagum
Showcasing its moniker as the Music Capital of the South, the LGU, through the City Tourism Office, invited local bands to perform during the countdown celebration. Included in the line-up were the battle of the band champions Pencil Case and Cuello Supplement Band and veteran performer Music Seven Band.
Tagumenyos were also entertained by Lyndon Almodiel aka “Petmalu” by sharing good vibes through his comedy skits.
Bracing themselves for the most anticipated event of the night, thousands of Tagumenyos and visitors grabbed their phones and/or hugged their loved ones when the real countdown started. A magnificent burst of lights soon followed and the people cheered in celebration of new beginnings.
The year 2020 is said to be the Year of the Metal Rat in the Chinese Calendar which is predicted to be a strong, prosperous, and lucky year for most people.
The year start countdown reflects the direction where the local government unit of Tagum is heading for this year – a path that would allow the LGU to create its own luck by pushing for its goals and aspirations for all Tagumenyos. Ziyarah Manalo/CIO Tagum
