BEST FIREWORKS EVENT

The annual fireworks extravaganza organised by Jubilee Fireworks was voted as YOUR favourite fireworks event.

BEST FIREWORK BRAND

Kimbolton Fireworks
Kimbolton were the clear winners in this category. Good build quality, reliability and top class effects are reasons you said you thought they were the best.

BEST FIREWORK

Lake of Sapphires by Kimbolton Fireworks
Another hard-fought category with many contenders but one firework secured significantly more votes than any other, the very popular Lake Of Sapphires from Kimbolton.


BEST CAKE OR CANDLE

Lake of Sapphires by Kimbolton Fireworks
You also voted Lake Of Sapphires as the best overall cake or candle.
BEST ROCKET

The Orb by Men Shun
This rocket has taken the market by storm, proving that an oversized and visually appealing exterior can actually hide a stunning performance too.

BEST FOUNTAIN

Glittering Gemstones by Kimbolton Fireworks
One of the cheapest fountains on the market, and only rated as a garden firework, but a staggering performance for the price sees this take your votes!

BEST MINE

Minster Mines by Minster
Powerful, single shot mortar mines in several flavours. Minster’s concentration on content rather than packaging secured your votes.


BEST GARDEN FIREWORK

Glittering Gemstones by Kimbolton Fireworks
You voted it “Best Fountain” and you voted it best overall Cat 2 (Garden) firework too!
FUNNIEST FIREWORK!

Missile Of Star by Devco Fireworks
Few would be surprised at this result, Devco’s brilliant three-tone cake has been making audiences laugh for several years and now it gets the recognition it deserves!
