Independence Day Fireworks Spectacular

As I am sure most of you will agree, fireworks bring out the 10-year-old in every man so any excuse to bring out the bangers!! This most American of holidays is traditionally celebrated with parades, fireworks and backyard barbecues across the country.

This 4th July, ex-pats from across the states will be holding their own celebrations (weather in the UK permitting of course) and will I am sure be coming along to see us to ensure that they get all the fireworks they need.

It has been widely reported that residents of New York City are not very pleased about the Macy’s fireworks being held yet again on the West side of the Hudson. I for one am of the belief that if they are so upset about a massive conglomerate (who pay for the fireworks themselves I hasten to add) making a choice as to where best to hold their own display, they should perhaps dig deep into their own pockets for the funding for one in their own area?

The fact of the matter is that irrespective of where you are, as an American, there must be a sense of joy in joining in celebrations. Therefore, if you are looking to impress your family and friends, why not hold your own Independence Day event. Our DIY display packs start from a very reasonable £295.00 (inc VAT and free delivery) and can be amended to your requirements. So, if you are looking for a display, predominantly with red, white and blue, why not get in touch and we will create a bespoke display for you.

If would like to leave the entertaining to someone else, in our capital, there is a wide selection best rated American restaurants, bars and clubs. To list just a few:
