The Firework Store
Wakefield’s Go-To Firework Shop for 20 Years

We’ve been lighting up the skies since 2004, proudly running a proper bricks-and-mortar firework shop in Wakefield.
Over the years, we’ve built a reputation as the premier fireworks retailer in the area, thanks to our outstanding customer service, unbeatable range, top-quality fireworks, and prices that make the competition nervous.
For the past 20 years, we’ve been THE Wakefield Firework Shop—same faces, same top-tier service, and just a couple of location changes along the way. We don’t take that title lightly, and every year we push ourselves to bring you the very best fireworks on the market. And if you thought fireworks were just for Bonfire Night, think again.
We’re open all year, ready for New Year’s celebrations, summer parties, weddings, or any event that deserves an explosive touch. Pop in, have a chat, get expert advice, enjoy a bit of banter, and grab yourself a fantastic range of fireworks at discounted prices.
When it comes to fireworks, we know our stuff—and trust us, you won’t be disappointed.

Latest Products

New Fireworks – Fresh Stock, Big Bangs, and Budget-Friendly Brilliance
Every year, we roll up our sleeves and scour the firework world to bring you the best, brightest, and biggest new products at prices that won’t leave you gasping for air. And let’s be honest—keeping up with rising shipping costs, transportation fees, and the price of raw materials doesn’t make things easy.
But once again, we’ve pulled it off. This year’s selection offers a perfect balance of stunning effects and affordability—whether you need a small selection box for the garden or a beast of a firework that’ll make your display unforgettable.
So if you’re looking for something fresh, exciting, and packed with spectacle, you’re in the right place. Here are the latest additions to our range, handpicked to give your display that extra bit of oomph.

Boom Diaries: Explosive Adventures in Pyrotechnics

Our Blog is hopefully informative and hopefully entertaining. It is difficult to keep banging on (sorry for the pun) about fireworks as for most people it is a once-a-year purchase.
I hold my hands up, I'm of the age where I'm not a blogger, influencer (what the hell is an influencer anyway?) or anything else social media related. So why do we have a blog? because it's part of our site. So every now and then I have to sit down and write something interesting, and I'm sure you don't want to know what I had for lunch or any fashion advice I have and believe me, that's the last thing you want.
So we tend to keep our Blog posts to things that matter and may provide useful information for your forthcoming fireworks purchase. Occasionally we may have a rant, usually at least once a year, lovingly referred to as Robs-Rant, but if I can't tell you, who can I tell?
So if you have come across our Blog, take a moment to see if there's anything interesting, we do update you on what's happening in the industry, and maybe you will find it interesting or it'll put a smile on your face.

Still here..

Well hello again, firework fans! Yes, we know what you’re thinking: “Where have you lot been hiding?” And that’s a fair question.

Every year we say the same, DON'T buy them.It's illegal to sell fireworks without a license and if..

Happy Birthday to us

In February 2024 we celebrate our 20th anniversary of selling fireworks. When we started selling fireworks in 2004 from our small shop on Doncaster Road in Wakefield, we had very little selection, compared to now, but even then we had a passion for fireworks. In 2005, we expanded our range and added a few more suppliers and we know that we had ..

What's been going on so far...

How time flies, here we are mid-July, and only 4 months to go to Bonfire Night. So I thought I'd drop a quick update on what's been going on and what's coming up. You'll have noticed that we have gone to "By Appointment" visits to the shop at the moment. We are desperately trying to keep our overheads down when it's quiet, allowing us to keep our ..
