Firework Displays in Spain.

Professional outdoor displays for weddings.

Outdoor firework shows in Spain using less than 10kg of fireworks can often be less hassle to obtain permission from the authorities, we must also have written permission from the registered owner of the property from which they will be ignited. A 10kg, 5-minute show is still a pretty impressive display, but larger fireworks shows can often be held as long as the local authorities grant permission. We can help you along with this process and there is no fee if permission is not able to be granted.

First, you MUST get written permission from the owner of your venue!
Then you may need to get permission from the local town hall - Do not try without it!

We would need to know the exact location the firework display will take place, plus the exact time (this must be before midnight), you must have written permission from the owner of the property. We can then apply for permission for a firework display through the local Spanish authorities and will normally have the decision within approximately 3-4 weeks. In some cases, permission will be granted with certain stipulations, such as the attendance of a fire officer, for which there are extra fees added by the authorities.

We do not recommend attempting your own firework show without permission, or using non-professionals, who may not have the required insurance and knowledge of legal safety procedures for setting up a firework show!

While available to purchase, it's not advisable!

Fireworks can indeed be purchased for limited individual use from certain outlets in Malaga city, but attempting to create your own firework display in Spain can land you in a lot of trouble! Spain can be a very dry country in summer and is often at risk of and suffers wildfires. Because of this, the authorities are very careful and in peak summer, all outdoor fires are banned, including the use of Fireworks, unless ignited under strict controls. There are very big fines for not observing the local rules for the use of fireworks, or outdoor naked flames, which vary from town to town! It's never worth attempting a firework display in Spain by yourself, always use an insured and professional pyrotechnic service!
