Spectacular Fireworks Display

Monday 13th  21.45 (approx)

• Frontier Fireworks Ltd

Kaleidoscope:

We have had so many positive comments over the past years about our imported fireworks which contain magnesium bright colours. Our palette of fireworks effects and colours have grown so much that at the beginning of this year we have created our most colourful and dazzling display yet called Kaleidoscope, which we will be blasting into the sky over Whitby to dazzle and entertain our audience.

The display will open with our special Golden Willow shells that have giant golden canopies that each have a different colour star on the end of each comet within the willow. This will commence our Kaleidoscope display by introducing all the colours in one dramatic opening.

We will then show our audience sequences of colours that are the same on each flank whilst we barrage shells from our central aisle in a different colour.

We will include our red crossettes that burst open splitting off in different directions, our sparkling silver strobe sequence, blue chrysanthemum shells, green peony barrages, deep purple fan cakes, aqua dahlia shells, pink crackling, blue barrages of stars and amazing tumbling gold comets that fill the sky.

It would not be a Whitby Regatta display without us painting the sky with a giant W for Whitby so we have a new and improved version of this that goes higher, faster and louder than ever before as we make our statement of intent known that we are approaching the amazing finale that our audience in Whitby have become accustomed to over the past years.

Once we begin to approach the finale of our display we will fill the sky with a mixed Kaleidoscope of stars from walls of cakes and barrages of shells until the sky is filled with a huge array of colours before we barrage the sky with our finale of gold and bright magnesium stars for a truly spectacular finale
