Rockets are what we think of as a classic firework. A one-shot firework, attached to a stick, launched individually from a tube in the ground.
They take off with a whoosh and explode in the air – usually with a single burst effect but also available as a double burst (aka a double effect or double shot).
They can be one of the most spectacular fireworks with larger effects creating a brief but impactful, sky-filling display. In fact, the very biggest rockets can reach 100 metres or more.
If you are looking for a smaller effect, some of the smaller rockets create more of a “pop” than a large bang. Use the videos and explosive content as a guide to their size.
