FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
How much does an average show cost?
Because every show has different specifications, I don’t put a price on “an average show”.We customize each show to fit each venues individual needs. Small shows can start at $1,500 and large shows could exceed $30,000. The deciding factors will be the size, quality and type of shells being used. Also the length of the show, electronic or hand firing, music and/or choreography are deciding factors in pricing.
How long is the average show?
10-20 minutes is the typical length of an average show. The key factors involved in the show length are your budget or more specifically, how many firework shells/effects you are purchasing and the amount of time in between each. I will always recommend a shorter show duration time that has a steady firing of shells and effects overtrying to extend the time by dragging out the show with lots of “black space” in between. I believe that the overall WOW factor of a expertly designed display is more important than how long it lasted.
How far in advance should we start planning for a show?
The more time that I have the better your display can be. Some of our largest displays have given us two years of planning and allowed us to custom order and custom build fireworks to make a display that is incredibly unique and unforgettably spectacular. However, I’ve been able to provide displays with as little as 10 days notice, however, this can only happen if the authorities that issue permits are willing to issue permits with a lot less than the desired amount of notice. Typically completing the contact 2 or more months before the display date is desirable.
What do you need to know about the shooting location?
Fireworks can be safely fired from many locations, such as open fields, building tops, parking lots,bodies of water, etc. Although some locations are better than others, all locations need an area that can been secured to shoot the fireworks from, and an area for the audience. The basic rules include a minimum distance from the fireworks. Roughly, a minimum 400-foot diameter fallout zone is required to the spectators, with smaller fireworks requiring less distance, and larger fireworks requiring more distance. Please contact me so that I can help you to select and evaluate your site.
Will there be an inspection of the launch site?
Yes. In order to plan a safe display best suited to your location, A fire marshal or a Fire Chief will visit your site before the show to view the lay of the land and measure distances between the show set-up area and the crowdline.
