Firework Champions

Families are in for a treat this summer as the UK’s biggest firework event returns for 2025.

Held in the stunning grounds of Newby Hall, near Ripon, Firework Champions will be delighting crowds on Saturday, Ausust 23.

The family-friendly show sees professional firework teams battling it out to be crowned the ultimate winner, before a spectacular fiery finale.

The event also includes a breathtaking drone display as the team work in harmony with the pilots to choreograph a symphony of lights in the night sky.

Ticket holders can also enjoy pre-show entertainment, picnic areas to catch-up, and fantastic food and drink options.

Organiser Mat Lawrence said: “Firework Champions promises to be a spectacular night out.

“Three of the UK’s best firework companies compete with a 10-minute spectacular firework display choreographed to music followed by a breathtaking huge finale display. 

“The types of fireworks being used are not available to the general public, each company uses category 4 fireworks, which are only for professional use and the biggest available in the UK.” 

So prepare yourself for an exhilarating evening with four firework displays, dazzling drone shows, lighting and lasers.

And the coolest part? The power lies in your hands! As the audience votes, via their mobile phone, for the display which impressed them the most on the night*.

Brought to life by award-winning MLE Pyrotechnics, Firework Champions has dazzled and amazed thousands of UK firework fans over the years.
