Performance & Effects
From the moment Velocity is ignited, it wastes no time. The rapid-fire straight-shot sequence launches 224 individual effects skyward in a dense, continuous volley that fills the entire vertical canvas above your display area. At 20 metres height, every burst is clearly visible even at larger events and open spaces.
The straight firing pattern creates a disciplined, powerful wall of effects — perfect for synchronised multi-firework displays or as a standalone centrepiece. The relentless pace builds intensity throughout the 50-second duration, culminating in a high-density finale that exhausts every last shot in a breathtaking crescendo.
With a noise level of 4 out of 5, Velocity is a loud, impactful firework that delivers the full dramatic experience audiences expect from a 1.3G professional-grade product. This is not a firework for quiet neighbourhoods — it is built to impress.

Can I use Velocity in my garden?
