I have not been to any Pyro Olympics before so I have same question as you.

I saw someone shooting along the baywalk area with a telephoto. Not sure though if this is the "good spot".

Sir Miguel- Im sure some DPPers would give us some best suggestion. Last year, there are Big boat ride for rent we tried it...you could shoot a decent shots but i suggest we go to a solid ground were we could set our gears on place. Last year, there are P100 pesos entrance away from the fire works barge the downside is too crowded...i couldnt move my tripod that freely.
