Frequently Asked Questions about a Fireworks Display or Firework Show
We try to anticipate questions you might have about our Fireworks Displays / Pyro Service and provide the answers here. If you need additional information send email to info@southeasternpyrotechnics.com.
1.
Where is a fireworks display allowed or legal?
A fireworks display by a professional fireworks company is legal just about everywhere. A permit is required, but our company completes this process for you. Even if fireworks are illegal in a state or area a fireworks display permit is obtained to make it legal. Some exceptions to this rule: restricted air space, in historical landmarks and select areas where endangered wildlife live.
2.
How much does a fireworks display or show cost?
A firework display or firework show can range in price dramatically. One of our starting packages begins at $2400.00 this is for a 5-7 minute show or a short finale show. The reason price can vary so much are the parameters that go into the display design. How far away will the spectators be? How long of a display do you want? 3-5min 7-10min 10-12min 12-15min or 15+ minutes? How big of a shell (or firework load) will we use? 1.75" 2" 2.5" 3" 4" 5" 6" 7" 8" 10" 10"+. The larger the shell size = higher altitude and bigger effect. Larger shells are needed when the spectators are farther away from the shooting area. A 3" shell will rise to a height of about 350-375ft with an effect size of about 100ft wide. A 3" shell is the most popular size. A 7-10min display is about $4200.00. We look at all of the needed parameters, including your budget, to design a display for a client.

What about insurance? Do I need special insurance?
As per the pyrotechnics or fireworks display, we will supply you with an insurance certificate. This protects you and anyone else you wish to add to the policy, such as destination venue or property owner. We carry up to 5 million dollars of insurance. If you desire or request more, we can accommodate.
6.
How far in advance should I book my display?
The sooner the better. Most of our large 4th of July or New Years displays are booked 6 months to one year in advance. We ask that you book at least 90 days prior to your display. However if it is a last minute show sometimes a display permit may be obtained. However the sooner the better!
