Novelty

Novelty Fireworks
Novelty fireworks are the smallest, simplest and most affordable fireworks in our range - the kind that need no setup and no fuss, just light-and-go fun. They're a favourite for garden get-togethers, kids' parties, birthdays and as a fun warm-up alongside a bigger display.
Our novelty range spans everything from pocket-money fun snaps and throwdowns to mini ground spinners, strobes, crackling micro fountains, hand-held fountains and coloured sparklers - small fireworks with big smiles.
How to Choose Your Novelty Fireworks
Fun Snaps & Throwdowns
Small paper-wrapped novelties that crack with a satisfying snap when thrown to the ground. No flame or fuse needed - just throw and enjoy. A party-bag classic.
Mini Ground Spinners
Compact spinning fireworks that whirl across the ground, throwing out a circle of sparks and colour. Lightweight and quick to light - keep a safety distance of 8 metres while in use.
Strobes
Strobe fireworks produce a rapid, eye-catching flashing effect rather than a single burst. Compact and simple to light, they add a striking visual to any garden display.
Crackling Micro Fountains
Tiny fountains that fizz, crackle and pop with bright sparks for a short burst of fun. As with ground spinners, keep a safety distance of 8 metres from lit fountains.
Hand-Held Fountains
A more interactive option, held at arm's length for a shower of sparkle. Always hold away from your body and other people, never point at anyone, and never hand a lit firework to a child.
Coloured Sparklers
Coloured sparklers also make a fun addition to the novelty line-up, burning in bright colours rather than traditional gold. You'll also find our full range in the dedicated Sparklers category.
