Firework companies battle it out in sparkling contest
SOUTHPORT'S tourism offering was showcased to about 25,000 visitors when the town hosted the British Musical Fireworks Championships.
Seven fireworks companies battled it out over three nights to be crowned champions - with Pyrotex Fireworx coming out on top after wowing audiences with a spectacular display.
The event takes place in the resort's Kings Gardens and according to event organiser Sarah Carter from Sefton Council, the event provides a great boost for local tourism businesses who can capitalise on the extra visitors who attend Southport to watch the championships.
