FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
Every display we organise, we will meet with you at the venue and you can discuss any special requirements or ask any questions that you might have. In the meantime if you have a question that we have not answered below and can not wait until we visit, please contact us.
Do have any pre-designed packages to choose from?
Yes, we have eleven pre-designed packages to choose from … please see Display Packages from the menu above.
How much are your packages?
Displays range from £800.00 upwards. Bespoke displays are calculated pro rata. All prices are exclusive of VAT.
How long do your displays last?
Our displays range from 5-6 minutes for the smaller ones, up to 15-20 minutes for the larger ones. Bespoke displays are designed to your specification.
Do you do bespoke displays?
Yes … we can create a display to almost any venue for any type of event, tailored to your specifications. Please see here for more info.
Can I specify colours to be used in my display?
Yes, it is possible to change colours for a themed event, but the use of specific fireworks can be dependent on the weather and venue.
Can you play music during your display?
Yes of course … we can even choreograph the display to particular pieces of music. This would be discussed during our meeting, but please be aware however, that 5-6 weeks notice would be needed for choreographed displays.
What is the smallest size area you can do a display in?
Really, it can be anything. There are fireworks available for almost any venue, but prior to every display, we would meet with you to discuss the options available to you.
How much notice do you need to do a display?
This depends on the size of the display and the time of year (Nov to Jan can be pretty busy!!). We will always do our best to cater for you at short notice, but the more notice the better! Choreographed and bespoke displays will require up to 5-6 weeks.
Can you do private functions?
Yes, we do displays for private functions and public events. Please contact us to let us know your requirements.
Do you use Low Noise fireworks?
Not in all our displays. We do however have a few packages designed specifically around using Low-Noise fireworks. Please see here for more information.
Do you clean up afterwards?
Yes, after every display we will clean up to the best of our ability, but please be aware that small pieces of bio-degradeable cardboard etc may be overlooked.
Are there any extras to pay?
No, the prices you will be quoted are fully inclusive of all materials, labour, communications and clean-up … and VAT!
What about insurance - do I need to get any to cover the display?
No. All our displays are fully insured for products and public liabilty up to 5 million pounds.
Do you do bonfires?
No. Please note that if you do build your own bonfire, it cannot be lit until after the display for safety reasons.
Which (geographical) areas do you cover?
Pretty much anywhere in the UK. If you have any queries, please contact us.
If the venue is on private land, who organises permission?
For all displays, you must have permission from the landowner, and it is courteous to inform neighbouring landowners especially if they have any livestock – this is your responsibility. We will inform the emergency services of your event.
Do I need to notify the Police &/or Fire Brigade?
On every display, we will inform the emergency services of your event.
Are there any times of the day when we can't have a firework display?
In our experience, fireworks are often better in the dark! But seriously, all firework displays must be finished by 11pm except on November 5th, New Year’s Eve and some other religious festivals.
