I established Twilight Fireworks just prior to 2020 when I was 18 after I developed a passion for physics and theatre pyrotechnics while at school. Since then, my company has grown to offer a diverse range of services, including wedding fireworks, theatrical pyrotechnics, special effects and corporate events. The company caters for clients from wedding couples to celebrities.
This competition marks a significant milestone for us, and we are thrilled to begin our competitive journey alongside Firework Champions.
Our core team of six has been with us since inception and includes friends and family. We also work with other professional display companies as required to ensure that our clients receive the display best suited for their needs. Our dedicated and enthusiastic team is the cornerstone of our success, providing invaluable support throughout the year, especially during peak seasons like November and New Year's Eve. While we typically utilise the Cobra Firing System, we are particularly excited to showcase the capabilities of FireTek today.
We are thrilled to be participating in Firework Champions 2025 for the first time. We are honoured to be competing against established display companies. We know everyone has worked incredibly hard to bring their best to this event.
