Blackpool World FIreworks Championships 2021 : Celebratory Display

Blackpool 2021
World Firework Competition Dates
Saturday, 11 September: Russia
Saturday, 25 September: Ireland
Saturday, 9 October: Germany
Saturday, 23 October: Celebratory display and winners announcement from Titanium Fireworks.

Germany was announced as the winner. Judges said it was almost impossible to separate the three entrants because of the sheer quality of the displays.

They were particularly impressed by Germany’s synchronisation of music, however, that comprised a celebration of Beethoven and praised the spectacular finale.

A spokesperson for the winning German team said the show was originally designed for the championship in 2020 to mark the 250th anniversary of Beethoven. It was dedicated to the composer’s music and was titled 'Beethoven’s birthday bash'.

He said, “My decision to limit the soundtrack to the compositions of only one composer made it much more difficult than working on a soundtrack for a "normal" show. The soundtrack begins with three gongs, without fireworks, which is a kind of a signature for my shows.

“One of my favourite scenes in this show is the rising part in the epic version of Moonlight Sonata which still gives me goosebumps every time I hear it!”
