On major cities in the Region VIII, fireworks shows can be seen on New Year's Eve, but also Friday 30, others later on Sunday 1st. Traditional and new, the people will enjoy and have to get used to, since fireworks have been banned to civilians for years, due to a campaign not to be burned, specially children.
