Any Fireworks Shop In Phuket

[dwoon]

Hi,

Could anyone advise whether there's fireworks for sale in Phuket.

I did some searches and came across an article that it has since been banned in Phuket. Is this correct?

Thanks

Driving into Phuket Town from the north (Thepkasatri Road), right before or right after the Phuket Town Inn Hotel, at the right hand side. Had no problems buying my New Years Eve fireworks there last year.

During the Christmas/New Years holidays nearly every non-chain mini mart/supermarket has loads of them, and some pretty hardcore stuff at that. It's harder to find "flower-fire" outside holiday period. I once went into a gun shop in Phuket Town that had a total of 4 guns for sale, and every square cm of floor space covered with every firework you could imagine.

Thanks all for the feedback.

Hope I can find some when I'm there next month.

Cheers.

Thought they were borderline 'illegal' in thailand to buy? this is good news.
