The visionary owner of Illuminatus, and with more than a keen eye for detail and innovation, Mark orchestrates mesmerizing displays that captivates audiences young and old alike. His leadership and dedication to excellence have made Illuminatus a standout amongst fireworks display companies. His passion, combined with his commitment to customer satisfaction, has left audiences talking about his displays year after year.

'Ponty' co-founder of Illuminatus and currently taking a well-deserved break from the demanding pace of firework displays. He will undoubtedly return with a renewed energy and excitement to once again dazzle audiences with his inspirations. 

An integral part of Illuminatus, Gill brings both expertise and heart to the team. As Mark’s wife, her passion for fireworks is intertwined with her dedication to the company's success, whilst also keeping Mark’s boundless need to amaze and delight audiences in check.

Tony is our resident gentle giant and strongman. When all the 'heavy stuff' needs putting out during setup, he's the one normally doing it. He's also the logistics person who makes sure everything is loaded on the vehicles for each display, from sandwiches and drinks to fireworks and everything in-between.

The ‘precision’ member of Illuminatus, inherits not only her dad’s passion for fireworks, but also his astonishing attention to detail. She meticulously sets and checks all positions and angles of every firework, to ensure that each explosion dazzles and delights, carrying on the family legacy of excellence in fireworks display artistry.

Peter is more of a behind-the-scenes crew member, checking and preparing the fireworks and effects for the Great British weather! He is mostly found waterproofing and protecting each and every firework that comes in to Illuminatus HQ. Peter is also our most senior citizen - Our token 'Oldie'

The ‘musical’ influence of Illuminatus, clearly inherits her dad's passion for fireworks and music. Growing up in a world of pyrotechnics, she combines creativity with an audio prowess to craft breath-taking displays. With a background in event coordination, as well as her ability to pair music with fireworks, Hayley ensures every pyro-musical display exceeds expectations, leaving audiences spellbound.

Martin is the methodical one... He's normally found carefully double checking everything (before Mark) prior to firing each display. - As man of few words he doesn't say much, but when he does, it's usually about the decade (in which he seems stuck) and normally referencing the 80's music which he loves!!

Lorraine (aka Monica from Friends) is an absolute stickler for all things 'tidy', so apart from her attention to detail on the display firing site, she also makes sure everything in our storage containers is in its right place.
Oh, and like Gill, she is happiest chatting non-stop about nothing and everything, so you can usually hear the two of them chatting non-stop whilst setting up each display.

Paramedic by day, fireworks enthusiast by night. With a heart for saving lives and a passion for lighting up the sky, Graham balances the intensity of emergency response with his enthusiasm for helping bring our dazzling displays to people and communities up and down the UK.

All round good guy and ready to jump-in to whatever position we need him for, on any given display. With a military background from the British Army, David certainly isn't afraid of getting up-close and personal to our hugely powerful ariel fireworks.

Willow, the youngest (and most adored) member of the team, embodies the company's spirit of joy and wonder. As the granddaughter of Mark & Gill, she brings smiles to audiences of all ages with her playful presence, adding an extra spark of magic to each display.
