Abstract

A fireworks holding device for holding fireworks in an upward direction for safely igniting the fireworks and for safely holding the fireworks so that they are fired in an upward direction. The fireworks holding device has a base, vertical supports connected to the base and horizontal supports connected to the vertical supports for contacting and holding or guiding the fireworks. The fireworks can be set off by remote control using a signal sent by a transmitter for transmitting a coded signal for setting off a selected firework. A receiver receives the signal and sends a current to an electronic match for igniting the fuse of the selected firework. The fireworks are therefore safely held and remotely ignited for increased safety of fireworks displays.
