AJ Pyrotechnics is a small family run firework company based in Kent but with a big reputation.
We were born out of the love and thrill of seeing fireworks and all the team who work here are passionate about what we do and what we deliver.
Formed in 2008, we were not initially active on the competitive display circuit, but MLE persuaded us to compete several years ago at the Stanford Hall Firework Champions and since then we have become regular competitors and look forward to the event each year.
Gaining experience from Firework Champions and by being in the company of some of the best firework display companies in the UK has raised our status and we are now well known on the National competition circuit having taken part in The British Championships at Plymouth and at the British Firework Musical Championships in Southport.
We were thrilled to win at Firework Champions at Arley Hall last year and this is our first closing display for the Firework Champions and we are so happy to be back at Belvoir Castle.
Tonight, we don’t have the pressure of competing but following on from three great displays there will be huge expectation on us to deliver something special at the end of the night. We won’t let you down!

Since then we have been lucky enough to travel the globe in numerous prestigious competitions around the world.
