frequently asked questions

• What are low noise fireworks?

  Low noise fireworks are fireworks specifically designed to minimise sound while still delivering impressive visual effects. They produce colours, crackles and sparkling effects without the loud explosive bangs associated with traditional fireworks, making them a more considerate choice for residential areas, events near animals and occasions with noise-sensitive audiences.

  This reduction in the flash powder means that instead of a bang, you get more of the pop or thump sound.

  While there is still some noise, the noise from the chemical concoction is at a much lower decibel now that it has been reduced in amount.

  A quiet firework produces about half the noise a normal one does and ground effect fireworks can make almost no sound at all!

  Rockets and firework mines tend to be quite loud, so if you are looking to have a quiet display, it would be best to avoid these.

• Are low noise fireworks completely silent?

  No, low noise fireworks are not completely silent. They do still produce some sound — crackles, whistles and low-level pops are common — but they are free from the loud explosive bangs of traditional fireworks. The reduction in noise makes them significantly more suitable for use in built-up areas or near noise-sensitive audiences.

• What types of low noise fireworks are available?

  We stock low noise fireworks across a wide range of categories including cakes and barrages, roman candles, fountains, catherine wheels and sparklers, meaning you don’t have to compromise on variety or visual impact to keep noise levels down.

• Are low noise fireworks suitable for pets?

  Low noise fireworks are a much more considerate choice for displays where pets may be affected, as the reduction in loud bangs significantly reduces distress for animals. However, it’s worth noting that even low noise fireworks produce some sound, so we always recommend keeping pets indoors and away from the display area where possible. Visit our firework safety guide for full guidance on fireworks and animals.

• Are low noise fireworks suitable for weddings?

  Yes, low noise fireworks are extremely popular for wedding displays, particularly at venues with noise restrictions. Many outdoor wedding venues require low noise fireworks to comply with their licence conditions. If you are unsure whether your venue permits standard or low noise fireworks only, always check with your venue before ordering.

• Can I use low noise fireworks in a residential area?

  Yes, low noise fireworks are specifically designed for use in residential areas where loud bangs would cause disruption to neighbours. They are also a great choice for garden fireworks displays in built-up areas, delivering a spectacular visual show without disturbing those around you.

• Are low noise fireworks suitable for children?

  Yes, low noise fireworks are an excellent choice for displays where young children are present. The absence of loud bangs makes them much less startling and more enjoyable for younger audiences. Always ensure children are supervised by a responsible adult at all times. Visit our firework safety guide for full guidance.

• How do low noise fireworks compare to standard fireworks visually?

  Low noise fireworks can be just as visually impressive as standard fireworks. Many low noise cakes, roman candles and fountains produce vibrant colours, unusual effects and unique displays that rival their louder counterparts. The main difference is simply the absence of loud explosive bangs.
