The 103rd anniversary celebration of the founding of Navotas City came to a glittering climax with a celebrity-studded show and a spectacular fireworks display.

Navoteños jammed Centennial Park in the heart of city for a two-hour musical treat from top performers and entertainment personalities.

Ai-Ai Delas Alas showed the crowd why she is the top comedy draw. Also rocking the stage were Rachelle Ann Go, Billy Crawford, Kitkat, Gerald Santos, Blakdyak, Bugoy Drilon, Aljur Abrenica, Kris Bernal, EB Babes, Ogie Diaz and the Sandwich Band.

The crowd stayed on for a breathtaking pyrotechnic show that lasted for 30 minutes.

Thoroughly enjoying the proceedings was Navotas City Mayor Toby Tiangco, who has through the years made sure that the city’s anniversary is a memorable event for the townsfolk.

"I still have grand plans for Navotas. I strongly believe that we can achieve our full potential for growth and development if we continue to pursue our dream for a better tomorrow," Mayor Tiangco said.

Navotas used to be part of Malabon. It achieved cityhood in 2007 mainly through Tiangco’s initiative. It has 14 barangays with a population of 265,000.
