Planning a celebration? Whether it's a backyard BBQ, a block party, or a big public event, choosing the right fireworks can make all the difference. At Elevated Fireworks, we make it easy to build a show that fits your vision, your space, and your budget.

Here’s a quick guide to help you make the best choices for your next fireworks display:


🎉 Small Events & Backyard Celebrations

If you're hosting a small gathering or family party, look for:

  • Fountains: Great for close-up entertainment and safe for tighter spaces.
  • Sparklers & Snaps: Perfect for kids and hands-on fun.
  • Smoke Bombs & Parachutes: Ideal for daytime fun.
  • Single-shot aerials: Add a bit of pop without breaking the budget.

💡 Budget Tip: Go for variety packs or novelty assortments to get the most bang for your buck.


🧨 Medium-Sized Gatherings

For birthdays, gender reveals, or neighborhood shows:

  • Cake Fireworks (Repeaters): Multiple effects in one setup.
  • Sky Spinners & Rockets: Eye-catching aerial effects with easy setup.
  • Barrage Candles & Missiles: Great for adding energy and motion.
  • Color-themed items: For themed parties or gender reveals.

💡 Budget Tip: Mix lower-cost effects with one or two high-impact items to balance price and wow factor.


🎆 Large Events & Public Shows

Hosting a major celebration or festival? Step up with:

  • Pre-loaded Shells & NOABs (Nine-on-a-Board): Big bursts, professional look.
  • Tubes & Mortars: Customize your show with different calibers and effects.
  • Coordinated Sets: Perfect for a grand finale.
