Michael:

Fireworks are like flash.  The aperture is the main thing.  Try f11 with
ISO 100 film and keep the shutter open for several bursts  on bulb
(until you have a nice composition).  You could bracket the aperture
just to be sure.  The shutter speed is not really relevant.

I have used this method and it works.  It also the method recommended by
texts on the subject.
