Frequently Asked Questions

These are some of the questions that we are often asked.

Are there any additional costs that I need to know about?

Prices quoted for professional displays are all-inclusive covering raw materials, insurance, transport, display set-up, firing, de-rigging, site survey and risk assessment. There are no extra charges unless optional extras are added.

What time can I have fireworks?

It is only legal to set off fireworks between 7am and 11pm. There are only a few exceptions when fireworks can be set off later and these are as follows:

until midnight on Bonfire Night (Nov 5th)
until 1:00am on New Year’s Eve, Diwali and Chinese New Year

This law is for both professional displays and consumer fireworks.

How long does it take to set-up a professional display?

This is dependant on the size of the display and the complexity of the location. Generally £750.00 Incl. VAT displays require a set-up period of two and a half hours, whereas £8000.00 Incl. VAT displays may require twelve hours. Times are explained in advance of a display.

What happens if it rains?

Rain does not affect the performance of the fireworks at our professional displays as the fireworks are waterproofed and waterproof fusing is used. Frontier Fireworks have never cancelled a display due to rain.

Will I need to contact the Civil Aviation Authority?

Frontier Fireworks will deal with this matter on your behalf if it is necessary for the display. Frontier Fireworks are continually in contact with the CAA and know all the processes involved.
