Low Noise Fireworks
Low noise or "silent" fireworks are a type of fireworks that produce less sound compared to traditional fireworks. These are designed to be more considerate of pets, wildlife, and individuals with noise sensitivities. While they do not eliminate sound completely, they significantly reduce the loud explosive noises typically associated with standard fireworks. They are available for purchase, and their availability can vary depending on the region and time of year. Some places may allow the sale of these quieter options all year round, but it's important to check local laws and regulations, as the sale and use of fireworks can be restricted in certain areas.
Low noise fireworks generally include:
1. Sparklers: These are handheld sticks that produce a shower of sparks without significant noise.
2. Fountains: These are ground-based fireworks that shoot up sparks and sometimes small bursts of colour without the loud bangs.
3. Smoke bombs: These produce a large amount of colourful smoke without much noise.
4. Cakes / Barrages : Some cakes and barrages are designed to have a quieter break in the air producing low noise effects, that still produce a visual display in the sky.
5. Snaps and crackles: These make a snapping or crackling noise but do not have the same loud bangs as regular fireworks.

What is a low noise firework?
A low noise firework is just as its name suggests: a quiet firework that produces less noise than a regular firework. These are ideal when you live in an area with noise restrictions, or if you’re simply concerned about bothering people nearby with your firework displays. You might also have a pet like a dog or a cat who finds loud fireworks stressful. Low noise fireworks look and act in a similar way to ‘normal’ fireworks. For example, you can buy rockets that are designed to be quieter, but generally, low noise fireworks will produce a slightly smaller explosion.

Can you get silent fireworks for firework displays?
There is no such thing as a silent firework and any retailer that claims to offer totally silent fireworks packs isn’t being truthful. It’s not possible for a firework to be silent due to the noise produced by the lift charge and the explosion of the shell in the air.
All fireworks, even 'silent' fireworks, will make some noise when the lift charge fires but low noise fireworks will not have any loud bangs when the effect bursts in the sky. Low noise fireworks are achieved by reducing the lift charge repellant, minimising the burst of the shell, and removing the salute.
How loud are low noise fireworks?
Considering regular fireworks cannot legally exceed 120 decibels, quiet fireworks are considerably lower in volume than this, some only reaching 70 decibels, 50% of the volume of a normal firework. You can buy low noise fireworks that are significantly quieter than ‘normal’ fireworks on this page.
