The British Firework Championships held in Plymouth each year is the UK’s most spectacular fireworks display. Over two summer evenings, six professional pyrotechnic companies
compete against one another with their dazzling displays to the delight of excited crowds on Plymouth Hoe. Plymouth’s Hoe, one of the finest natural harbours in the world, offers
the perfect viewing platform for this incredible competition. The event is free to attend and has become a legendary activity for locals and visitors from across the country, enjoying the display of fireworks, live music and entertainment, fairground rides and a range of food stands. With 2020 a milestone year for Plymouth, as it serves as the lead city in
the Mayflower 400 commemorations, higher visitor numbers are expected at key events across the year, providing a high profile opportunity to engage with members of the public in a tangible way. Over the two nights, 100,000 people are expected to attend the British
Firework Championships. There are a range of sponsorship opportunities available, offering you the chance to align your business with this hugely popular event.
