Software for daytime fireworks

Stock by colour, firing by wind: PyroDesk keeps track of both.

A daytime display trades light for colour and volume. Smoke pots, daylight shells with coloured trails, smoke candles and daylight cakes all read against the sky, and a grey sky swallows pale tones. Wind becomes your first firing parameter, because smoke flattened to the ground is invisible and drifts into the crowd. Weddings, sports fixtures and corporate launches ask for this format, usually mid-afternoon, squeezed between two speeches, when the guests are all outside and the photographer is ready.

The client is buying a picture: a sky full of pink and white outside the church, the club colours at kick-off, the brand palette above the marquee. So they ask for precise hues and a short piece, rarely more than a few minutes. What goes wrong most often is stock. A daytime show is planned by colour, and finding out the day before that you are short of yellow smoke turns a clean design into a compromise. Bookings pile up on weekends from May to September, exactly like night shows.

PyroDesk sorts your daytime stock by colour, across more than twelve hues, and forecasts what each event will consume before you commit. The quote goes out in five minutes, the client signs quote and contract on their portal and pays by bank transfer. You reserve the items on the dossier, the authority declaration fills itself from the firing data, and the calendar pins the crew to the exact ceremony time. After the show, the invoice is generated from the quote with nothing retyped.

Frequently asked questions

Which products work for a daytime fireworks display?

Smoke pots, daylight shells with coloured trails, smoke candles and cakes designed for daylight. Favour saturated hues such as red, orange, blue and green, which stand out against a clear sky; white and pale yellow vanish quickly under an overcast sky.

How much wind can a daytime show take?

Less than a night show: the smoke is the effect itself, and wind flattens it to the ground or pushes it into the crowd. Plan the firing orientation around the prevailing wind, agree a fallback with the client and check conditions on site on the day.

Do daytime fireworks need an authority declaration?

The rules depend on the category and quantity of the products, not on the time of day. A daytime show built from items subject to declaration carries the same obligations as a night show. Check with the local authority; in France, PyroDesk prepares the prefecture CERFA form for you.
