How to Plan Your Home Fireworks Display for Christmas 2018

Fireworks are a fun addition to a Christmas party. Everyone will enjoy the opportunity to drag themselves out after a big Christmas dinner to watch sparkling, dazzling fireworks for a bit! Here are the tips to plan your show.

Set a Budget

Start by thinking how much money you want to spend on your display. Fireworks displays don’t have to cost a fortune and our online store has plenty of amazing fireworks and discount items for you to look at.

Of course, you will always be able to make your show just a bit more dazzling if you can stretch the budget. One cool idea is to ask your neighbours to all chip in for a big show!

Choose the Right Fireworks

A nice home fireworks display should last around 10-15 minutes. You can find plenty of fireworks from Catherine wheels to compound fireworks in our website. You can even opt for set display boxes if you don’t want to design your own display from scratch.

A good fireworks display could be built around a few big rockets. By adding fountain-fireworks and Roman candles, in addition to long-lasting fireworks, you’ll end up having a fun and varied show.

It’s important to keep in mind the space you have, as this will place some restrictions on what you can have. Garden fireworks only require an 8-metre safety distance and therefore, they are great for smaller spaces.

If you’re worried about the noise and you want to be considerate of your neighbours who might not be quite as excited, you should opt for low noise fireworks. These won’t make as big of a sound but they’ll still be just as fun as normal fireworks in terms of effects and colours!

Plan Safety

Before you buy fireworks for your home display, you have to think about safety. Firework must be stored in a dry place where they are covered with a fireproof sheet and away from children or pets. You can read about leftover fireworks here if you don’t know what to do with them.

When you are firing your fireworks, you want to be wearing safety equipment such as goggles and gloves. Have a marked area for the family to watch the show and don’t fire fireworks if you’ve had a drink! It’s important to explain the dangers of not listening and following instructions to smaller kids and keep pets inside when setting off fireworks.

Your fireworks will leave some bits and pieces behind and these might fall from higher in the sky as well. Point them slightly away from the garden and make sure to collect the pieces afterwards.

Organising a home Christmas fireworks display is fun and easy. Keep safety at the forefront of your planning and get the whole family involved in creating the show. You’ll end up having a lot of fun and your fireworks display will be the talk of the neighbourhood!
