Kimbolton Fireworks was a British manufacturer of display fireworks based in Kimbolton, Cambridgeshire, founded in 1964 by the Reverend Ron Lancaster. It sold fireworks to shops, ran a mail-order business, and staged public displays including the 25th anniversary of the Queen's coronation and the 1997 Hong Kong handover, before it announced it would cease trading in 2019; its trading rights and Kimbolton brand were later sold on, first to Phoenix Fireworks and then, for the retail brand, to Celtic Fireworks.
