The length of your fireworks display depends on the occasion and budget. At Firework Display, we recommend:
- Private events (e.g., birthdays, small gatherings): 4-7 minutes.
- Weddings: 6-8 minutes.
- Medium-scale celebrations: 8-12 minutes.
- Large public events: 12-18 minutes.
A shorter display filled with vibrant, well-timed effects often makes a stronger impression than a longer, drawn-out show. Our team focuses on quality over quantity, delivering spectacular moments from start to finish.
Yes, depending on the location and timing of your display.
- Private Land: Securing approval from the property owner.
- Local Noise Regulations: Ensuring compliance, particularly if your display runs after 11 PM.
- Public Venues: Working with local councils and safety authorities to organise permits and plans.
We handle the entire process for you, ensuring your display runs smoothly without any hiccups.
Yes, we specialise in pyro-musicals! Our advanced software allows us to synchronise fireworks with your chosen soundtrack, whether it’s classical, pop, or movie themes. By timing fireworks bursts to key musical moments, we can create a breathtaking experience that will leave your guests in awe.

Rain doesn’t have to ruin your event. Our professional-grade fireworks are prepared to work in rain. For severe weather, such as strong winds, safety comes first. We will monitor the forecast and discuss backup options with you in advance or on the day.
In most cases, we can adjust firing times/locations or reschedule to ensure you still get your perfect display.
To ensure availability, we recommend booking as early as possible. Popular dates such as New Year’s Eve, Bonfire Night, and summer weekends fill up quickly. Ideally, aim to book at least 3 months in advance however we are often able to accommodate bookings at very short notice if required.
Early booking gives us time to design a show that meets your expectations and handle all necessary preparations.
