Would you want a "super-duper, mega" fireworks display for Hamilton?
Hamilton was spoilt for fireworks choice over the weekend, with the Gallagher display on Friday and another at the closing of the Hamilton Garden Arts Festival on Sunday.
But - after Friday's display was said to have disrupted an earlier arts festival performance - the two groups are talking about working together.
"We wouldn't want to stop anyone from having a fireworks display because people love them," festival co-director Bronwyn Bent said, "but obviously we'd love to work together and make a fantastic, super-duper, mega fireworks display."
Sir William Gallagher said in a statement that he was keen to work with the festival organisers.
