Performance & Effects
Gold Fever opens with powerful vertical shots that rocket skyward to 30 metres, instantly filling the upper sky with enormous golden willow ti-breaks — those iconic drooping trails of golden stars that hang in the air like weeping willows of pure light. As the sequence progresses, the mixed firing pattern transitions into wide fanned angles, spreading the golden canopy across the entire horizon before cycling back to vertical salvos.
Each shot bursts into a combination of gold strobes, gold plum effects, and cascading golden stars that layer on top of each other, creating a dense, richly textured sky that glows from edge to edge. The compound format ensures the firing sequence is perfectly choreographed — this is not a random barrage but a precisely timed performance that builds, sweeps, and delivers a thunderous golden finale.
At 5 out of 5 noise level, every shot arrives with the deep, powerful report expected of 30mm professional tube fireworks. This is a firework that you feel as much as you see.
What Is a Compound Firework?
A compound firework consists of multiple individual cakes or barrages fused together and fired as a single, continuous sequence from one ignition point. Unlike a standard single ignition barrage, a compound firework gives the display organiser the visual impact of multiple separate fireworks in a single product — with precise timing and choreographed transitions between firing patterns built in by the manufacturer. Gold Fever's compound design is what allows it to move fluidly between vertical and fanned effects throughout its 45-second performance.
Who Is Gold Fever Best Suited For?
Gold Fever is the ideal choice for:
-
Large open spaces such as fields, paddocks, and event venues where the 25-metre safety distance is achievable
-
Professional display organisers and experienced enthusiasts seeking 1.3G compound performance
- Bonfire Night, New Year's Eve, Diwali, weddings, and corporate events
- Customers who want a single-colour, gold-themed display with maximum visual impact
- Anyone building a choreographed multi-firework display who needs a dominant centrepiece or show-stopping finale
Safety Information
Minimum Safety Distance
Gold Fever requires a minimum safety distance of 25 metres between the firing position and all spectators, structures, vehicles, and boundaries. Given the 30-metre height and mixed fanned firing pattern, exceeding this distance wherever possible is strongly recommended.
Hazard Classification
Gold Fever is classified as Hazard Class 1.3G — a professional-grade pyrotechnic. Please ensure you are legally permitted to purchase and use 1.3G fireworks at your chosen location before ordering.
Tube Size
Gold Fever fires from 30mm tubes, producing significantly larger burst diameters and higher lift charges than standard consumer 25mm products. Ensure your firing site is appropriate for this scale of product.

Frequently Asked Questions
How many shots does Gold Fever by Vivid Pyrotechnics have?
Gold Fever fires 75 shots over approximately 45 seconds. While the shot count is lower than some single ignition barrages, the 30mm tube size and 1.3G classification mean each individual shot is significantly larger, louder, and more visually powerful than standard consumer fireworks.
What height does Gold Fever reach?
Gold Fever reaches a maximum height of 30 metres — one of the tallest trajectories available in the consumer and semi-professional compound firework market. This makes it clearly visible at large outdoor events and open fields.
What safety distance does Gold Fever require?
Gold Fever requires a minimum safety distance of 25 metres. This is considerably greater than standard garden fireworks and reflects its 1.3G professional classification and 30mm tube size. It is not suitable for small or enclosed gardens.
How loud is Gold Fever?
Gold Fever has a noise level of 5 out of 5 — the maximum rating. It produces a full, deep report with every shot. It is not suitable for noise-sensitive locations, events near animals, or areas with firework noise restrictions.
What is the firing pattern of Gold Fever?
Gold Fever uses a mixed firing pattern, combining straight vertical shots with wide fanned angles. This creates a dynamic, sweeping performance that fills both the height and width of the sky throughout the 45-second duration.
What does a ti-break effect look like?
A ti-break (also written as "time-break") is an effect where a burst of stars fires outward in a ring or crown shape before breaking again into a secondary effect — in Gold Fever's case, cascading golden stars and strobes. The golden willow ti-breaks in Gold Fever produce enormous drooping trails of gold that hang in the air, creating the signature visual for which this firework is known.
Is Gold Fever suitable for a garden display?
Gold Fever is not suitable for standard residential gardens due to its 25-metre safety distance and maximum noise rating. It is designed for large open spaces such as fields, event grounds, or paddocks. If you need a gold-effect firework for a garden display, please contact our team and we will recommend a suitable alternative from our range.
