Here is the latest news from Fantastic Fireworks

  • The big Christmas switch-on goes with a bang
  • Can you put on a display tonight? Yes we can!
  • Stars in the East
  • Up for more awards

 

As the UK’s leading fireworks company we helped towns and cities across the UK switch on their Christmas lights with fireworks, lasers and special effects.

We showed off our latest range of low-debris fireworks specially selected for rooftops and close proximity viewing.

At Poole in Dorset we entertained thousands of shoppers with rooftop fireworks, lasers, flames and an amazing display of dancing fountains.

Les Robertson, head of Poole BID, told us: It was fantastic. We wanted something different & everyone, especially the kids, said how great it was.

As a professional fireworks company we pride ourselves on being available at only 24 hours notice. But last week we topped even that.

The call came in at 2 o’clock in the afternoon asking if we could put on a show that night at a prestige London venue.

Just 4 hours later we were on site at historic Spencer House and at 9.30 we fired the show!

‘Absolutely brilliant’ said Spencer House’s events director Chris Stallworthy. ‘I never thought you could do it at such short notice. I have no hesitation in recommending Fantastic Fireworks.’

Christmas is the time of the year when we look for a new a star in the East. Our display team have been in China searching out the latest in firework wizardry.

They were welcomed by leading manufacturers eager to show off their star performers.

Ones that caught our eye were a fan cake with a beautiful a sweep of red and blue stars, a starburst with a Mexican wave and another super starburst resembling an exploding dandelion!

And finally, we’re delighted to announce that we’ve been shortlisted for two more awards. We’re in the frame for Best Visual Spectacular at the Outdoor Festival Awards and the Event Production Awards for our staging of Charlie and the Chocolate Factory at Windsor Racecourse.

 

Thank you for watching and best wishes for Christmas and the New Year
