Fireworks in Newcastle and the North East

Newcastle City Council doesn't run its own fireworks display, so the big organised nights in the North East are racecourse and club events, such as the Fireworks and Funfair Racenight at Newcastle Racecourse on Friday 6 November 2026. If you're firing your own, Bonfire Night is a Thursday this year, so Saturday 31 October and Saturday 7 November are the likely nights.

Fireworks for Newcastle gardens. The Tyneside flats and terraces in Heaton, Byker, Fenham and Benwell usually have small yards, which suit fountains, small cakes and our low-noise range. Gardens in Gosforth, Jesmond, Ponteland or out towards Morpeth often have room for F3 display packs, which need 25 metres of clear space between the firing point and the audience. Ring 01709 769 184 or email us a photo if you're not sure what will fit.

The legal points. Fireworks can't be set off between 11pm and 7am, except until midnight on 5 November and until 1am on New Year's Eve, Diwali and Chinese New Year. Private land only, so no parks, streets or car parks. Safety distances are 8 metres for F2 garden fireworks and 25 metres for F3 display fireworks. You must be 18 or over to buy F2 or F3. Storage: cool, dry, locked, in the maker's packaging, for up to 48 days from delivery without an explosives licence.

Have a look at the low-noise range first if you're in a built-up area, or jump straight to the cake and barrage section if you've got the space. Rockets, fountains, sparklers and complete display packs are all in the main range too.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do you deliver fireworks to Newcastle?

Yes. We deliver to every NE postcode plus Gateshead, North and South Tyneside, Sunderland and Durham. Enter your postcode at checkout and you'll see your delivery date and price.

What happens on delivery day?

Our ADR-trained driver will send you a 2-hour delivery window. They'll help you offload your fireworks and put them somewhere safe, such as a porch, garage, shed or outbuilding. Please give a safe place at checkout: if nobody is in and there's nowhere safe to leave them, the delivery fails and redelivery costs £29.95.

Can I click and collect instead?

Yes, from any of our three shops: Dinnington near Sheffield (12-14 Hangsman Lane, S25 3PF, 01909 560011), Ripley in Derbyshire (54 Oxford Street, DE5 3AP, 01773 513388) and Retford in Nottinghamshire (8 Grove Street, DN22 6JR, 01777 869111). They're a long way from Newcastle, so most of our Newcastle customers order for delivery. Retford is a seasonal shop, so check its hours before you travel.

How long can I store fireworks at home?

You can store fireworks at home for up to 48 consecutive days without a storage licence. Keep them somewhere cool and dry, away from heat, out of reach of children and pets, and in their original packaging.

Do you deliver to my exact postcode in Newcastle?

Enter your postcode at checkout to see your delivery date and cost. Tyneside, Wearside and County Durham are on our standard pricing. North East Scotland and the Highlands are classed as remote and cost more. If you have a question about your address, email help@galacticfireworks.co.uk or call 01709 769 184.
