Fireworks Blog

As we all know, the world lives a war in Ukraine. Many lives lost and places completely destroyed. People need help for basic necessities. Maybe in the past, part of the fireworks came from war applications, but now we are using Fireworks to help people in the war and call for peace! Fortunatelly, there are yet good people in our world and this is also the case in the Fireworks industry, so, currently there is an event called fireworks4peace organized by many Pyrotechnics Associations to promote a worldwide show on May 8h . Many fireworks factories and artists will contribute making their own shows. The action is not only a symbolic thing but they are also collecting contributions to people afected by the war through UNICEF. Please visit their website on https://fireworks4peace.org/ and look at the event schedule - if you're a spectator maybe there is a show in your city and if you're a Fireworks organization, maybe you can also contribute with your show.

In the world of fireworks, one of the things I really love is the sound of a mortar firing . So many times watching fireworks shows, I paid more attention to the ground (mortars) than the skyes. If you are reading this post and you've never been close to a mortar firing, for sure you must try it some day. Anyway, I found a very good video on YouTube from 1PYRO8 channel ( visit here ) that has one of the most well recorded sounds of fireworks mortars firing. Checkout this part of one of his videos below that for me describes the best way the sound of a mortar firing: Another thing I also like during a mortar firing is the color of the black powder burning, specially in fiberglass mortars where you can see the flame even inside the tube!
