I purchased the loudest compound Showtime Fireworks sells, and it caused a spectacular Wednesday night meltdown from ‘Neighbour Brenda’ at number 42. It’s like a neighbourhood watch alarm going off, but with way more colour. 10/10, would buy again.

I can't put into words just how great the Showtime Fireworks team are. The stock and service is beyond anything I've ever experienced from others and even outside of working hours they go above and beyond to help you. My wedding would not have been what it was without their help and service. I would give 6 stars if I could!

Visited these guys for Nov 5th night....we had no idea what we wanted and no idea what to get. The super professional team asked a few questions on who we were catering for and our budget. Then took charge and pulled together a fantastic package talking us through what we we'd expect. Amazing service and 110% recommend them to anyone....see you guys in time for NYE

Amazing fireworks!!! Ordered on Friday delivered Sunday, the delivery guy was so friendly and kept in contact throughout the delivery. Showtime is our one stop place to order fireworks!

This was our first time using showtime fireworks and we were skeptical to change shops at first. We also left it late to order so wasn't expecting to receive anything fast. Amazing! Is all we can say. We ordered a significant amount of fireworks on Monday evening, I called the shop to confirm a delivery date and they were delivered the following day on the Tuesday! Which we did not expect and we're very grateful. Communication was great throughout.. if they missed my call, they called back, letting me know when they were estimated to arrive, and when they were outside. Friendly service from start to finish. Max delivered the fireworks and couldn't do enough for us. Some were very heavy so he carried them inside. We order every year and will be ordering again from showtime fireworks for sure. Thank you all!

Jay and the team at Showtime Fireworks really went the extra mile with my order and its subsequent delivery, I am delighted. Their stock of firework brands is excellent and the ability to watch videos of the products really helps with choosing the right ones. On the night, the fireworks themselves were excellent and added a real wow factor to our small garden family display. Next time I order I will call them for assistance in getting the most out of my budget and choices - they have been so helpful I can thoroughly recommend them.

Come here every year to stock up for Guy Fawkes and New Years. Best fireworks shop in London for both product quality and price. I always go for the same order but they have lots of new stuff everytime I go. They also do free local delivery. Thank you Showtime Fireworks!!!

Wicked guys do deal with, provided excellent products. Family all really enjoyed the firework show. Got some experience in fireworks myself so no bull, give these boys a shout if you see something you need that's in stock, if not they'll provide an absolute correct substitute to get the job done no messing about. So thanks showtime fireworks, from the shop operator to the delivery driver(s) with excellent customer skills all round. Nice one guys 👍👌 Happy divalli! All the best from Daljeet Bansal (Smethwick) Thanks.

The cakes and barrages selection is fantastic. You can get superb barrages at great prices which deliver a wonderful display are loud and colourful. Turtle Burger, Major, insane, psycho are recommended. Hell fire rockets also pack a punch.

Drove down to London to pick these up. At first I thought it was too good to be true at this price but showtime came through with the best deal! Highly recommended will buy again

I was working nearby and I bumped into Jay from Showtime Fireworks. After visiting the showroom, I had a clear mind what I wanted to purchase. Jay kindly explained the differences between the fireworks and created a bespoke package for me. I knew immediately that his deal was competitive and worked out better than buying individually. I purchased Vivid - Reapers (10) Rockets, Vivid - VSR2 (6) Rockets, The Asylum - (9) Cake/Shot Box. He even threw in few extra Sparklers for the kids. They also offer local delivery, trust me you won't regret it shopping there.
