Welcome to lightfires. Our passion for art was forged in the coals.

We’ve a real passion for creating bespoke images and events with wide appeal. Our effects have brought internationally acclaimed shows to audiences in their thousands. That said we’re just as passionate about the small scale, and the delicate perhaps more surprising artistic uses of fire.

Whether we’re providing a single effect to a piece of theatre, devising a whole pyro-animated performance, or crafting a firework celebration, we like to design things that really work artistically.

Let our passion for the science behind the effects set your imagination ablaze.
