Fireworks to thrill !
Experience
the excitement, sights and feel of a fireworks display right in
front of you. Smell the gunpowder. Look to the heavens for the
breathtaking, heart pounding extravaganza to begin.
Fireworks brings
together people in a way that no other can. It promotes community
camaraderie and spirit. It’s the least expensive way to entertain
thousands of people of all ages.
The magic of a
great fireworks show is in it’s formula. It all starts with the
music. We lay down a soundtrack with songs that almost everyone can
relate to. This enables people to bring their own experience with
these songs and project them into the show they are watching. People
will start grooving and reacting to what they are seeing and
hearing.
This gives us the
foundation to build the show using fireworks effects and colours
that strengthen the emotions of excitement, laughter and wonder.
How do you
fire your shows?
We fire our shows
by hand, electrically, radio remote or a combination of all
What makes
your shows different and how much does it cost?
All our shows are
set to music and customized for the occasion.
What do I get
for my money?
A complete
package fireworks show. We apply for the fireworks permit, resource
consent and landowners approval. We put together the risk management
plan for the event, measure safety distances to public and buildings
and send copies to police, fire service and local council emergency
services. We carry public liability insurance and a Health & Safety
Policy.
How do you
set-up the display and how long does it take?
It depends on the
event, size of the show and circumstances. We have fired shows with
mortars buried in sand pits, inside jumbo bins, strapped to waratahs
(standards), on board tandem trailers and from pontoons in rivers
and harbours. We have also fired effects from atop buildings, poles,
over water and inside stadiums.
How long does
it take to set the display?
It can take from
2 to 30 hours to rig a show on site. Some events require a 5 to 10
minute set-up on the firing site so we pre-rig everything on tandem
trailers, tow them into position, run cable to a firing board,
clear the vehicles and start firing the show.
What special
effects can you do for our event?
We can spell the
bride and groom’s initials in sparklers around a heart. Or provide
cascading waterfalls and fountains.
Starshells can
paint the sky blue, green, purple, golden or silver and burst on a
particular note in the music. We can fuse roman candles to ripple
across the sky or form lattice effects.
Ground mines can
throw thousands of silver stars 30m into the air on cue. We can
shoot roman candles through ring starshells bursting 70m high,
provide supersonic booms, send screaming missiles into the air or
light hundreds of Double Happy firecrackers.
We can do just
about anything.
What sort of
music do you use?
A whole range
from classical to rock. A lot of music we choose is used at major
international fireworks contests like Ode to Joy, Handel’s
Watermusic, 1812 Overture, Theme from Shrek, Starwars, Moulin Rouge
and Gladiator. We use Disney music, Maori, ACDC, Deep Purple, Elton
John, Steps, Atomic Kitten, Joe Satriani, Baha Men, Bollywood, world
music and more ...
