Thinking of having a display?
Things to consider...

If you are considering holding a firework display, your initial thoughts should turn to the display area and location around it. The size and features around the site can dictate what size of display and type of fireworks can safely be used. The site must have enough space between the launch area and the audience and of course be away from any buildings/property that could pose problems. As long as these factors are taken into account the its up to you to dictate the content of the display.

Things you may wish to consider for your display:

Colour(s)
If you have any preference to colour - perhaps you may wish to use corporate colours for a product launch, or just have a favorite colour, these can be included or followed.

Noise
All fireworks make some noise, but some more than others. There are three main noises that fireworks make - crackles, whistles and bangs. Perhaps you have a preference, if you do then let us know. Sometime the location of the display may mean you need to consider the noise for the local residents. If you decide to have a display in an inhabited areas , perhaps consider letting the people know to ensure their pets are safe inside.

Height:
Fireworks roughly fall into three height levels:

Low Level: Roman candles, small cakes, mines and fountains. These project effect up to about 20 feet or so. Typical noises are crackles, and small bangs and even whistles.

Medium Level: Large Mines, Large Cakes and Small Shells (aerial fireworks). These are likely to travel between 20 and 100 feet. The noises are usually louder that those of the ground level, but can be chosen without loud bangs and whistles if necessary.

High Level: Large aerial fireworks, shells which burst hundreds of feet in the air, these usually form the finale of a display or can form a major part of a large display. These fireworks need to be launched in large open areas. Again these can be relatively silent or have loud bangs, but given their size there is usually some noise on launch.
