So you're ready to experience the magic of fireworks for the first time—welcome to the Elevated Fireworks™ family! Whether you're planning a backyard celebration or just want to try something exciting, choosing the right fireworks can make all the difference in creating a memorable, safe, and dazzling show.
Here’s our beginner-friendly guide to help you get started with confidence.
🎇 1. Fountains – Safe, Colorful, and Crowd-Pleasing
Perfect for: Families, smaller spaces, and first-timers.
Fountains stay on the ground and spray beautiful sparks in all directions. They're low-risk, come in various effects, and don't require special setups.
🔥 Try This: Liberty Fountain, Rainbow Blast, or Sparky’s Sparkle Stream
🧨 2. Assortment Packs – A Little Bit of Everything
Perfect for: First-timers who want variety.
Assortment packs are curated bundles that include fountains, novelties, sparklers, and small aerials—giving you a taste of everything without the guesswork.
🔥 Try This: Beginner’s Boom Box or Patriot Starter Pack
✨ 3. Sparklers – Classic and Kid-Friendly
Perfect for: Kids (with supervision), selfies, and celebration photos.
These hand-held fireworks are fun, simple, and safe when used properly. They're a must for any beginner fireworks night.
🔥 Try This: Gold Sparklers or Color Changing Sparklers
🚀 4. Aerial Repeaters (Cakes) – Big Bangs, Simple Setup
Perfect for: Backyard shows and impressing guests.
Aerial repeaters, or “cakes,” are preloaded with multiple shots. Light one fuse and enjoy a mini-show. They’re beginner-friendly and look professional.
🔥 Try This: Red, White & Boom Cake or Fire in the Sky
🎆 5. Roman Candles – Fun for Open Spaces
Perfect for: More experienced beginners (with plenty of space).
These long tubes shoot colorful balls into the sky one at a time. Always use outdoors in open areas and never hold them by hand.
