What happens in a fire show?

Fire performers dance and manipulate fire using props like poi, staffs, fans and tridents. A fire show is dramatic, loud on the senses and an unbeatable finale.

Fire is almost always outdoors, on a terrace, courtyard, lawn or beach, and always with the venue's approval and a proper safety plan.

Where it works best

  • Summer parties

    After dark on a terrace or lawn.

  • Festivals

    Evening shows that draw a crowd.

  • Grand finales

    The last moment before the dancing.

  • Weddings

    A send-off guests will film.

  • Brand events

    A reveal with real impact.

  • Under-the-sea themes

    A sea god with a fire trident.

Tips from our team

  1. 1

    Plan the viewing area

    Guests need a clear, safe distance with a good view.

  2. 2

    Time it for darkness

    Fire looks best after sunset. Check the time of dusk on your date.

  3. 3

    Get venue approval early

    Many venues have fire rules. We ask the venue first.

How long is a fire show?

Usually a short, high-impact set. We plan it around your timings and the venue's rules.

How far ahead should we book?

As early as you can. Friday and Saturday dates in December and the summer months go first, often months ahead. Short notice is sometimes possible, so it is always worth asking.

Usually, yes. Tell us your theme, colours or brand guidelines and we will suggest the costumes and acts that fit best.
