What a Bonfire Night.
After weeks of planning, packed stores, collections, last-minute questions and customers getting their displays ready across Manchester, Rochdale and beyond, Bonfire Night 2026 has officially been and gone.
Now we want to see how your night looked.
If you bought your fireworks from Boom Fireworks this year, send us your best photos and videos from your Bonfire Night display. Whether it was a family display in the garden, a larger celebration with friends or a finale you were particularly proud of, we would love to see what you created.
And if you are happy for Boom to share your footage across our social channels, let us know when you send it.
You can also continue to shop the full Boom Fireworks range throughout the year for birthdays, weddings, New Year celebrations and other special occasions.
Bonfire Night 2026 at Boom Fireworks
Bonfire Night is always one of the biggest periods of the year for the fireworks industry.
In the run-up to 5 November, customers visited our stores looking for everything from smaller family selections to barrages, rockets, display packs and larger combinations for more substantial celebrations.
For some customers, Bonfire Night is an annual tradition.
For others, 2026 may have been the first time they planned their own display at home.
Either way, a lot goes into those few minutes in the garden.
Choosing products, checking the space available, organising spectators, thinking about pets and neighbours and making sure every firework is used according to its instructions all happen before the first fuse is lit.
That is why seeing the finished displays is always one of the best parts of the season.

You do not need professional camera equipment.
A clear vertical phone video can be perfect for social media, while wider landscape footage can also work well for the website and future Boom content.
If you are sending footage that includes identifiable people, make sure everyone shown is comfortable with the content being shared.
To send your footage, contact the Boom Fireworks team through our Contact Page or email shop@boomfireworksltd.co.uk.
Tag Boom Fireworks in Your Display
If you have already posted your Bonfire Night photos or videos on social media, tag Boom Fireworks so the team can see them.
We would particularly like to see the displays created using products purchased from our Manchester and Rochdale stores.
If there is a particular product or part of your display that stood out, tell us that too.
Customer footage helps other people understand how different styles of fireworks can form part of a wider display and gives us a chance to see what happens to the products after they leave the shop.
What Did You Choose for Bonfire Night?
Every display is different.
Some customers prefer a varied evening using several types of fireworks, while others want a simpler setup built around a handful of larger products.
Among the most popular categories customers consider are Barrages, which provide multi-shot sequences from a single unit.
Customers looking for the classic launch-and-burst experience can browse the Rockets range.
For families wanting plenty of variety in one purchase, Selection Boxes remain a popular starting point.
You can also explore Display Packs if you would rather choose a preselected combination of fireworks for a broader display.
Whatever you chose this Bonfire Night, we would like to see how you put it all together.
Your Finale Might Be Our Favourite
Some of the best customer videos come from the final few moments of the display.
If you saved a larger barrage, rocket sequence or combination for the end of the night, send us the footage.
Even a short 10 to 20-second clip can be useful.
We are particularly interested in genuine customer content rather than polished professional footage.
Real displays in real gardens give people a much better sense of what Bonfire Night looks like for Boom customers.

Remember to Clean Up After Your Display
Once Bonfire Night is over, there is still one final part of the evening to think about.
Make sure used fireworks and debris are dealt with responsibly.
Allow everything to cool completely, keep children and pets away from the firing area and follow the appropriate disposal guidance for any spent or failed products.
Never attempt to dismantle a firework or immediately return to a product that has failed to operate.
Our Firework Safety Guide contains further information to help customers use fireworks responsibly.
A good display deserves a responsible finish too.
Bonfire Night May Be Over, but Fireworks Aren't
One of the biggest misconceptions around fireworks is that they are only for 5 November.
Boom Fireworks supplies customers for celebrations throughout the year.
That can include:
-
Birthdays
-
Weddings
-
Anniversaries
-
New Year's Eve
-
Family gatherings
-
Gender reveals
-
Sporting celebrations
-
Cultural celebrations
-
Corporate and organised events
So while Bonfire Night may be behind us, there are plenty of reasons to plan another display.
You can browse all fireworks online whenever your next celebration comes around.
Planning a Wedding?
Fireworks can create a memorable finish to a wedding reception or evening celebration.
Depending on the venue, available space and permissions, customers may choose fireworks to accompany a send-off, evening celebration or finale.
The important thing is making sure the products selected work for the venue and that all individual instructions and safety requirements can be followed.
If you are planning fireworks for a wedding, speak to the Boom team before buying rather than leaving the decision until the event itself.
Birthdays and Family Celebrations
You also do not need to wait until November to enjoy fireworks.
A birthday, anniversary or larger family gathering can be another opportunity to create a display, provided you have an appropriate space and the fireworks can be used legally and safely.
A Selection Box may suit customers looking for several different effects, while Barrages can provide a simple way of introducing a longer sequence from a single product.
The best choice will always depend on your available space, audience and budget.
New Year Is Next
For many customers, the next major fireworks date after Bonfire Night is New Year's Eve.
If fireworks are part of your New Year plans, there is no need to leave everything until the final days of December.
Planning early gives you more time to compare products, consider your available space and choose what you actually want rather than simply buying whatever remains closest to the date.
Keep an eye on the Boom Fireworks website and social channels as we move toward the New Year period.
Need Help Choosing Your Next Fireworks?
