Apparently there's an issue with some ‪@VIVIDPyrotechnics‬ labels this year... Vivid products... with labelling issues... surely not(!) #CIAIA (Retailers: Don't blame me ...again!)

A very happy #IndependenceDay to all my #USA viewers! On what is the biggest day of the year for #Fireworks across the States, I hope you all have a safe an enjoyable time!

Whilst I have been in the States on #FourthOfJuly once in the past, sadly that year in Florida it had been very dry and all fireworks displays had been banned... which is such as shame, as I'd love to have seen #Disney #MagicKingdom fireworks on 4th July, as they're extra special!

I actually did a video which touched on how the fireworks are even better at #WDW on special days like today... and it's actually one of the most watched videos on my channel!

If you haven't seen it... #America250

I'm delighted be asked once again to present the FIREWORK AWARDS UK later this year, an event brought to you by the UK Firework Alliance in association with the UK Firework Review Community.

Right now nominations are open, and here's the link to the nomination form:
forms.gle/9PxjRYwmsvTxsERf8

Please use this to nominate your favourite fireworks in each of the 15 categories (categories are optional - you don't have to submit a nomination in every category)

The top 5 chosen fireworks in each category will then be shortlisted in a final voting form which will be released in July and the winners will be announced right here on my channel in October.

Please read the criteria for each question - fireworks that don't fit the criteria will not be counted, and please only include fireworks that have been available to purchase in the UK in the last 12 months and that are genuinely worthy of winning an award!

Time to get nominating!!
