Some fireworks have catchy names; others have warnings. The Widow Maker falls firmly into the second category.
Widowmaker is a brand-new powerhouse for 2025 from the Xtreme Fireworks range. This isn't just a standard straight-firing cake; it’s a dynamic display in a box that changes its firing pattern throughout.
It kicks off with stunning coloured breaks mixed with massive golden sparkle, before switching gears into a distinct V-shaped section of gold combined with bright silver strobes. It then opens up further into giant golden brocades firing in a wide fan, wrapping everything up with a noisy finale of silver reports.
The quality of Xtreme Fireworks is simply outstanding, and this piece shows exactly why.
Galactic Top Tip: "This is a Category F3 firework, which means you need that full 25-metre safety distance to enjoy it safely. Because it fires in a V-shape and a Fan, make sure you have plenty of space on either side of the firing site (avoiding trees or fences) so those angled shots have room to break."
