Types of Fireworks

·        Firecrackers – This is probably the first type of fireworks you saw as a child. They can be set off individually or in packs tied together for maximum impact.

·        Fountains – These pretty fireworks will gain all the goodwill you’re looking for. They stand on the ground and emit sparkling showers of colorful light as well as whistling and cracking sounds. Children are especially fond of fountains!

·        Novelty – This is the category for parachutes, snappers, party poppers, and the like. Use these to get the party started.

·        Roman Candles – These come in a tube and contain multiple shots of stars, lights, and whistles. They should always be firmly secured in a metal tube and never held in the hand as they go off.

·        Smoke Bombs – as the name suggests, these fireworks emit large amounts of colored smoke over a wide area. They have become more popular in recent years at gender reveal parties.

·        Spinners – Secure them to a tree or a wooden platform and these beauties will spin quickly throwing sparks of light in a beautiful pattern.

·        Rockets – These fireworks are launched from a metal tube secured in the ground. They soar high into the air before exploding in a shower of light.

·        Cakes/Repeaters – available in sizes up to 500 grams, these are the “Big Daddy” of the fireworks family. They are typically multi-color with both color and glitter effects.
