Solihull Fireworks

A fantastic place to buy fireworks, whatever time of year. Staff are helpful and don’t try to over sell. When compared with the other «pop-​up» shops with their special deals, Solihull Fireworks prices are the same, but with much better quality fireworks, without all the guff about half price and bogof…
Definitely worth a visit, phone them if you need to buy during times when the shop is shut, they will arrange to open up for you, great service! Thank you Solihull Fireworks.

If there’s one thing that Birmingham needs more of, it’s fireworks shops. I have never for the life of me understood how a dedicated fireworks shop actually manages to stay open, given they probably have three or four good business days a year, but they’re certainly cool to wander around, and Solihull Fireworks in Shirley is no exception. They have a quite frankly astounding range of fireworks, with all of the usual suspects, rockets, Catherine wheels, Roman candles, and all at very reasonable prices. There’s too many deals to go into, but I got their budget rocket pack, containing twenty seven rockets, which set me back just £70, and which were of good quality (anyone who’s bought budget fireworks knows the danger of getting complete duds that never work). They also specialise in large corporate or wedding displays, which are again well priced (relatively), and if their regular rockets are anything to go by, will be a sight to behold.

This is possibly one of the best places to get fireworks in Shirley, mainly because there isn’t much competition. I love fireworks especially the big, loud and colourful fireworks that just seem magical! The shop sells a host of fireworks; my personal favourite is the rocket. Solihull Fireworks is in the middle of a residential area so as you can imagine it gets quiet busy around holidays like New Year and Bonfire night. Although they get a lot of fireworks in the busy times, they sell fast. Experience has taught me to buy in advance for events like this so there’s no disappointment.
I got some fireworks from here for Diwalli, the festival of light, and the staff were pretty good at helping me find the ideal firework display to show off in front of family, for my budget. This takes me onto my next point, money. We all know fireworks aren’t cheap and everyone wants to save money. Some of prices are OK but obviously the bigger you get the more you pay so it would be nice if they had deals and/​or sales.
If you’re looking for a decent place to buy a range of fireworks then this is the place to go in Shirley, but learn from my lesson.
