We stock a wide range of low noise fireworks, from small garden fountains at a few quid to full display compounds that run for several minutes. Every firework on this page has been picked because it avoids the sharp bangs and loud reports that upset dogs, cats, young children, and anyone else who'd rather enjoy the colours without the racket.
There's no such thing as a silent firework
We should be upfront about this because a lot of retailers aren't: no firework is completely silent or noiseless. There will always be a soft thump or whoosh as effects launch. If anyone claims to sell silent fireworks, they're misleading you.
What we can do is keep the noise right down. The fireworks on this page typically produce between 70 and 90 decibels — roughly the volume of a washing machine to a lawnmower. Compare that with standard fireworks, which can legally hit 120 dB in the UK (as loud as a rock concert).
Best types for keeping the noise down
Fountains are the quietest option. They sit on the ground and throw out showers of sparks with nothing more than a gentle crackle. Most run between 70 and 80 dB.
Low noise cakes and barrages launch effects into the air but use charges designed to minimise the report. You'll hear a soft thump on each shot rather than a crack or bang.
Sparklers and ice fountains are virtually silent and work brilliantly as table centrepieces at weddings, parties, and celebrations.
Safe for small gardens
Most of this range is Category F2, meaning you need just 8 metres between the firework and your spectators. That's manageable in most average-sized back gardens. A handful of the larger items are Cat F3 (25 metres), so check individual product pages for the exact safety distance.
Putting a quiet display together
If you want a ready-made option, our Silent Night Pack contains low noise items chosen to run as a complete display. For something more personalised, start with 2-3 fountains, add a couple of low noise cakes for colour variety, and finish with sparklers.
We've written a longer guide on the blog: Are Quiet Fireworks Really Possible? — it covers how low noise effects actually work and what to expect on the night.
On the other hand, if you want maximum impact and noise is the whole point, browse our loud fireworks — titanium salutes, air bombs, and the noisiest cakes in the range.

Low noise firework FAQs
Can you buy silent fireworks?
No. Silent fireworks don't exist — every firework makes some sound when it fires. Any retailer claiming to sell truly silent fireworks is misleading you. What you can buy are low noise fireworks, which avoid the sharp bangs and loud reports. The quietest options — fountains and sparklers — produce around 70 decibels, roughly the volume of a normal conversation. Standard fireworks can reach 120 dB.
Will low noise fireworks still scare my dog?
Most dogs tolerate low noise fireworks much better than standard ones, because they lack the sudden loud bangs that trigger a fight-or-flight response. Fountains and sparklers are the safest bet. That said, every dog is different — if yours is extremely noise-sensitive, keep them indoors with the TV on during even a quiet display, and consider speaking to your vet.
How loud are low noise fireworks in decibels?
Most low noise fireworks produce between 70 and 90 decibels. For reference, 70 dB is about the volume of a washing machine, and 90 dB is similar to a lawnmower. Standard consumer fireworks in the UK can legally reach 120 dB, which is as loud as a rock concert.
Can I use quiet fireworks in a small garden?
Yes. Most of our low noise range is Category F2, which requires just 8 metres of safety distance from spectators. That's suitable for most average-sized gardens. Check the individual product pages for the exact safety distance — a few larger items are Cat F3 (25 metres).
What types of low noise firework are available?
We stock fountains (the quietest option), low noise cakes and barrages, Roman candles, Catherine wheels, sparklers, and ice fountains. We also carry pre-made display packs like the Silent Night Pack, which includes items chosen to work together as a complete quiet show.
Do you deliver low noise fireworks?
Yes, we deliver across the UK. Orders over £300 qualify for free delivery. All fireworks are shipped by specialist courier in compliant packaging.
