A '''firework star''' is a [[Minecraft:crafting]] ingredient used to create explosive [[Minecraft:firework rocket]]s, which deal damage based on the number of stars added. Firework stars can be crafted using various combinations of [[Minecraft:dye]]s and other [[Minecraft:item]]s, which affect the appearance, colors and visual effects of the resulting explosions.

== Obtaining ==
In [[Minecraft:Survival]] mode, firework stars are obtainable only through crafting. In [[Minecraft:Creative]] mode, the generic version{{only|JE}} or all 16 color variants{{only|BE}} can be found in the Creative inventory.
