Playing with Fire

It's the Forth of July weekend and everyone has their own traditions: family cookouts, parades, red, white and blue decorations, and of course, there are the fireworks. As you watch the fantastic displays against the night sky, do you ever think of the business that are responsible for the show? Well, we did. That's why we have representatives from American Fireworks and Bartolotta Fireworks in the studio to tell us about their businesses and how they turn a seasonal product into a year-round business.

American Fireworks is a company that sells consumer-grade fireworks for you to set off on your own - make a private show for your family and friends with the help of the staff's recommendations and your own personal favorite fireworks.

Bartolotta Fireworks is responsible for several of the biggest firework displays in Milwaukee including Summerfest's Big Bang, U.S. Bank's 4th of July show, and several of the "fest" firework displays.

Their insights are both enlightening and fascinating. The business of fireworks is truly a fun and unique line of work.
