The Frontier Fireworks team are so excited to be at Fireworks Champions at Hatfield House for the second time.
Frontier Fireworks were established in 1996 with the help of the Princes Youth Business Trust. We came into the fireworks industry from an athletics background and simply for the love of fireworks.
We have been providing professional fireworks displays services for nearly thirty years now, showcasing our own fireworks and individual skillset to hundreds of thousands of people across the UK.
We are perhaps well known for emotive, artistic displays where we like to use different types of music to enhance our audience enjoyment and emotional involvement.
We also sell fireworks to the general public and have a wide range of DIY fireworks to choose from on our website.
Our team of pyrotechnicians really are an eclectic group of people who come from all walks of life. We initially started the business with a tight group of family and friends who worked with us before we expanded.
Over the past years we have continually accepted more people into our company who fit the team ethos.
We use the Cobra Wireless Firing System for musical accuracy and this enables us to perform wide, creative displays in fields and on all types of structures and surfaces.
Frontier Fireworks really has taken us on many different routes and adventures. Working with the RAF Red Arrows team for their special 50th Anniversary season was a big favourite over the years.
Sometimes even smaller displays where we were given the opportunity to hold the Paralympic Flame in 2012 was a special moment in time.
Going back to our roots also in 2012 was working for Lord Moynihan and The Olympic Ball Committee for two very special displays leading up to the London Olympics. So many great clients but just as important, so many great memories over the years.
We are very excited to be here at Hatfield House for the Fireworks Champions event. It really does feel like a special occasion for us, a kind of "Frontier Fireworks comes in from the cold" moment and we are relishing the time when the countdown begins.
We want you all to relax and come on an emotionally charged pyromusical journey with us. Ranging from emotive music to pyrotechnically charged thrills we cannot wait to unleash our specially designed display for you all to enjoy.
