The British Musical Fireworks Championship is set to dazzle visitors in Southport this week with stunning pyro-musical displays and Southport's first ever drone light show by DroneSwarm.

The British Musical Fireworks Championship returns to Southport this week, with colourful explosives set to amaze visitors.

The pyro-musical competition will see the best pyrotechnic teams light up the night with dazzling fireworks displays, choreographed to a musical soundtrack.

Six former champions show off their creative skills in a spectacular battle for the ultimate crown, with each display judged on creativity, technical execution, crowd impact, and musicality.

This year’s event will also see Southport’s first ever drone light show courtesy of DroneSwarm, one of the UK’s leading drone entertainment providers.
