Fire shows for public events
One Fire shows for public events It has an immediate charm: light, heat, darkness, rhythm and technical gesture capture attention even in a large square. It can become the most photographed evening moment of a festival, close a review, light up a historic center or give intensity to an outdoor event. Therefore it must be chosen in advance, when it is still possible to verify place, authorizations and technical conditions. Precisely because it uses flames, however, it cannot be chosen only for scenic effect: wind, distances, near materials, public, permits, fire extinguishers, assistants, free routes and defined responsibilities.

Choose one fire show for a public event It works well in the dark, in open spaces, with a public arranged at a distance and with a clear time of attention.

Before the quote clear place, time, duration, number of artists, expected audience, flooring, presence of children, neighboring buildings, vegetation, settings, covers and materials that might be sensitive to flames.
Distances, wind and materials: the limit is not negotiable
In public events with fire the feasibility depends on real conditions: wind, dryness, pavement, escape routes, tents, gazebos, cables, stages, trees, balconies, decorations, paper, fabrics and people too close.
