Put on the spectacle of a lifetime with our premium compound firework cakes. These out-of-this-world fireworks create a huge display that rewards you time and time again, going through a cycle of beautiful eruptions that captivate viewers from all around.

What Are Compound Fireworks?

Compound fireworks are a revolutionary advancement in pyrotechnics that allows an entire display to ensue before your eyes with a single ignition. This works by having multiple cakes pre fused together and using a delayed fuse to ensure a long-lasting display. After lighting the fuse on one of our compound firework cakes, there is a chain reaction of dazzling, enchanting fireworks that will make the crowd cheer over and over again.

For the Biggest and Brightest Displays

With multiple tubes fused together, you get nothing short of spectacular. We here at Galactic Fireworks know what goes into incredible pyrotechnics, which is why we offer the best compound fireworks from all around. Our selection includes a wide variety – you can get a compound firework display that provides a high number of shots, like the Code Red, which lasts a minute and uses an incredible amount of power. We even have compound cake fireworks that offer over 500 shots for one ignition, lasting over three minutes!

High-quality and Ultra Safe

Our compound cake fireworks are of the most premium quality, as we only stock the best firework brands, including Bright Star, Brother Pyrotechnics, Evolution Fireworks, and Primed Pyrotechnics. We also have our brand of fireworks – Galactic Fireworks – that will put on an unforgettable display.

As well as high-quality fireworks that bedazzle audiences, we ensure absolute safety with every one of our purchases. Our family-run business has been in the industry for many years. Each of our stocked compound cakes has been tried and tested to perfection, passing the most rigorous testing to ensure they are safe for public use. That’s a guarantee.

Safety is even more assured with compound fireworks, as it only requires one ignition! You only need to get up close and personal once, and then you can stand back at a safe distance to enjoy the sensational performance. With compound cakes, it’s as though you are part of the audience.

Types of Compound Fireworks on Offer

The best firework compound cake for your display depends on your unique needs. It depends on where you’re putting on the display, the type of visuals you’re going for, and the occasion you’re celebrating. Luckily, we at Galactic Fireworks have shows to suit all needs!

Length of Time

The number of shots in each of our compound firework cakes varies greatly, with some having 100 shots and some having over 500! Of course, this changes the length of time. Whether you want a quick, rapid-firing display or a three-and-a-half-minute spectacle, we have the compound cake firework to suit your preferences.

Colours

What kind of colours do you want to ignite the sky? Our firework cakes come in a multitude of colours to suit all occasions. For a wintery effect, you might choose lots of blue. For something a little different, you can even find a strobe effect that offers colours like red and green.

Category

There’s a big difference between category F2 and F3, which relates to the amount of space you have. When buying a compound cake from us, choose F2 if you don’t have much space, as this allows you a minimum safe distance of eight meters. If you have more area to work with, F3 can work well, keeping in mind they require a safety distance of twenty-five meters.

Classification

Our compound cake fireworks can either be classed as 1.3G or 1.4G. For the biggest, most explosive fireworks, you want to choose 1.3G, as these offer louder and bigger bursts. Keep in mind that 1.3G fireworks are more hazardous and are meant to be used as big displays – 1.4G fireworks are safer for garden use.

Noise Level

Some people like their fireworks to go off with a thunderous bang. On the other hand, others are very near residents who may not want to be bombarded with bang after bang on bonfire night or New Year’s Eve. Not to worry – our firework shop has compound cakes to suit both preferences. Our low-noise fireworks are much quieter than your average pyrotechnic display, offering stunning visuals without the boom. If you want lots of loud bangs to ignite all the senses, you can also choose one of our extreme noise-level compound cakes.

Price

Our compound cakes come in a wide range of prices, so you will surely find the right display to suit your budget. You can get a brilliant show for under £100, or you can get the most dazzling compound cakes for upwards of £1,000! One thing you can be sure of: our compound cake fireworks are amazingly priced. We are always running exceptional fireworks offers to ensure everyone can enjoy that beautiful cascade of colours during times of celebration.

When To Use Compound Fireworks: Our Top Suggestions

Compound fireworks make creating a spectacle in the sky easier than ever, thanks to the pre-fusing technology. Here are the best occasions to make the most of this invention!

Bonfire Night: The most appropriate time in the UK to set off fireworks is bonfire night. On the 5th of November, you’ll witness fireworks flying through the sky all over the UK – so why not join in with your own undefeatable display? With our compound cakes, you can light a long-lasting burst of fireworks to capture the mesmerised attention of all onlookers. 

New Year’s Eve: New Year’s Eve is a time for extravagance, which is why compound fireworks are the best type of firework to use! After igniting the single fuse, you can step back and enjoy the show with the other onlookers, ensuring your new year gets started in absolute celebration.

Weddings: No one wants their wedding to be forgettable. By choosing the best firework compound cake, it definitely won’t be! Once the sun sets on your big day, the perfect way to finalise the moment is to let fireworks erupt in the sky while taking a beautiful photograph of the bride and groom.

Chinese New Year: Chinese New Year is a colourful celebration that involves delicious food and firework displays. With our compound cake fireworks, you can put on your own Chinese New Year display this year!

Staying Safe with Compound Fireworks

Galactic Fireworks only stocks the safest, most rigorously tested compound cake fireworks. Still, it’s essential to know how to use them properly to stay safe, as fireworks can always pose a threat if they are not handled correctly!

Age

Children under eighteen cannot handle fireworks – that is against the law. It’s always best to get a responsible adult to light the fireworks.

Zero Alcohol

You should never handle fireworks of any kind after consuming alcohol. Be in a sound, sober mind when handling them to ensure absolute safety.

Instructions

Our compound cake fireworks come with detailed instructions – you must follow these! They will tell you how to stay safe while enjoying a display. Remember that instructions differ from firework to firework, so if you have firework rockets, the instructions might look different than those for a compound cake.

Location

Your location significantly impacts the kinds of fireworks you are safe to use. For example, if you’re in a smaller space, F2 fireworks are much safer as you only need to step back eight meters. Don’t forget to check for any obstructions above you – a tree in the way might prove dangerous if your fireworks don’t fire straight upwards.
