Stardew Valley's 1.6 update has brought an exciting new addition to the game: fireworks! These colorful explosives come in three different varieties - red, purple, and green - and can be used to create stunning light shows in the virtual world. While fireworks don't serve any practical purpose, they're a fun way to add some extra flair to your farm or celebrate special occasions with friends.
Obtaining Fireworks in Stardew Valley
To get your hands on fireworks in Stardew Valley, you'll need to visit Qi's Walnut Room on Ginger Island. This secret area can only be accessed after completing a few steps:
- Repair Willy's boat to gain access to Ginger Island.
- Explore the island and collect 100 Golden Walnuts by completing various tasks and challenges.
- Once you have 100 Golden Walnuts, the mysterious door on the west side of the island will open, revealing Qi's Walnut Room
Inside the Walnut Room, you'll find Qi's shop on the right side. Scroll through the available items, and you'll see the three types of fireworks listed. Each firework costs one Qi Gem, and there is no limit to how many you can purchase.

Using Fireworks in Stardew Valley
To buy fireworks from Qi's shop, you'll need to have Qi Gems in your possession. These special currencies can be obtained by completing Qi Challenges, which are posted on the board to the left of Mr. Qi. The challenges are quite difficult, but successfully finishing any of them will reward you with Qi Gems that you can use to purchase fireworks and other items.
Using fireworks in Stardew Valley is a simple process. First, select the fireworks you want to use from your inventory. Then, face an empty square on the ground and press the action button to place the fireworks. After a brief delay, the fireworks will shoot into the sky and explode in a vibrant pattern.

If you find yourself with extra fireworks or decide that light shows aren't your thing, you can always sell them for a bit of extra cash. Each firework is worth 50g when placed in a shipping container. While they won't count towards your "Items Shipped" collection, selling fireworks is an easy way to turn Qi Gems into gold.
