Answer is: Exothermic reaction.

Exploding fireworks is chemical change (chemical reaction), because new substances are formed, the atoms are rearranged and the reaction is followed by an energy change (energy is released).

There are two types of reaction: endothermic reaction (chemical reaction that absorbs more energy than it releases) and exothermic reaction (chemical reaction that releases more energy than it absorbs).
