It seems that 6 firework manufacturers compete over 2 nights, judging is subjective, by 3 celebrity judges, normally a Councillor, fire chief and a local TV star, best one walks off with a cash prize and a gold cup. Been going 13 years now, and brings thousands on to Plymouth Hoe, this year they had MTV crash, then the car and bus show, military bands, then this, Plymouth has come alive (again) and long may it continue.
