Formosa Fun Coast explosion
On 27 June 2015, flammable starch-based powder exploded at Formosa Fun Coast (; also known as 八仙樂園 ''Bāxiān Lèyuán'', "Eight Immortals Paradise" or less literally "Myriad immortals paradise"), a recreational water park in Bali, New Taipei, Taiwan, injuring 508 people, with 199 in critical condition.〔 , fifteen fatalities were attributed to the explosion. The dust explosion, which occurred on a music stage〔 during a "Color Play Asia" party (), has been called the "worst incident of mass injury () in New Taipei". The powder was identified, by some sources, as colored corn starch.〔
==Background==
The "Color Play Asia" party was inspired by the colored powder used in the Hindu religious festival "Holi", also called "festival of colors", which is celebrated in India, Nepal, and other countries with large Hindu populations. In August 2013, the first Taiwanese color party took place in Sizihwan, Kaohsiung City. It was organized by the same event company that organized "Color Play Asia".
That same year, a National Tsing Hua University expert warned that the colored powder used during the Color Play Asia parties might cause a dust explosion if the material was combustible.
