So, you’ve got a bub on the way (congrats!) - and now it’s time for the most exciting part: the big reveal!
Whether you’re team pink, team blue, or just team surprise me, we’ve rounded up the best gender reveal ideas to help you pull off an unforgettable celebration.
At Celebration HQ, we’ve got all the goodies to make your reveal pop, sparkle, and explode with colour. Let’s dive in 👇
💨 1. Smoke Flares for the Classic Reveal Moment
Nothing says “It’s a boy!” or “It’s a girl!” like a sky full of colour.
Our Gender Reveal Smoke Flares create thick, vibrant plumes that make for seriously jaw-dropping photos.
Because the colours are shown on the labels, get a friend or family member to light the flares for you while you face the other way. When you turn around to see that pink or blue cloud - that’s your big moment (and trust us, it looks incredible on camera).
🔥 Pro Tip: Film it in slow motion for that cinematic spin-around shot.

With one quick twist, they shoot out a stunning burst of bright pink or blue powder - no confetti, no mess, just pure colour.
💡 Idea: Use two cannons at once for that double explosion effect that covers you both head to toe in colour.
