## Effects that work where fireworks can't

Low ceiling, indoor venue, tight site, strict council? That's exactly where special effects earn their keep.

**Special effects in Tasmania** let you deliver a fireworks-grade moment inside a function centre, theatre, warehouse or marquee. Cold spark fountains photograph like pyro, CO₂ jets punch a dancefloor drop, and low fog turns a first dance into something cinematic — all without a single aerial shell.

Every effect is operated by trained crew under a documented risk assessment, with venue liaison, detector isolation and exclusion zones sorted before your guests arrive. Effects can be timecoded alongside fireworks, lighting and lasers so the whole show hits together.

Cold sparks are the single most requested effect we run. Two to eight units, spaced across a stage or dancefloor, firing a curtain of silver spark for fifteen to thirty seconds — the shot that ends up as the cover photo.

Indoor-safe, low-temperature output

1m to 5m spark heights available

Wireless or timecoded triggering

Venue approval and risk assessment included

Pairs with low fog and confetti

Operator on site for the whole run

FAQ

## Special effects questions

Are cold spark fountains safe indoors?

Cold spark units use a granular metal composition that produces a much lower-temperature spark than traditional pyro, which is why most indoor venues will approve them where they refuse conventional gerbs. They still need clearance above and around the unit, competent operation and venue sign-off — we handle the assessment and liaison.

Will special effects set off the venue's fire alarms?

Haze, fog and some effects can trigger smoke detection if the system isn't isolated. We identify this at the planning stage and coordinate with venue management on detector isolation or effect selection so nothing interrupts your event.

Can effects be triggered on cue by the band or DJ?

Yes. Effects can run from timecode alongside lighting and fireworks, be fired manually by our operator on your cue, or be handed to a performer on a controlled remote for handheld cryo.

Do you supply effects for weddings?

Constantly. Cold spark fountains for the first dance and cake cutting, low fog, flame features for outdoor receptions and confetti for the exit are our most-requested wedding combinations.
