Hi Tara,
 
We have just finished celebrating the Queen's Birthday down here in
Australia.  A major part of the three day weekend is the fireworks.
 
When all the firecrackers were going off and we were in the house (so
heard muffled booms) Ollie, was very wide-eyed and was looking around.
I don't think he was scared just unsure of what the noise was.
 
The next day I took him out for a walk and some kids in a close-ish
backyard let off some tom-thumbs and he tried to ran all the way home,
he tail all bushed up!
 
Later that night he seemed to pay less attention to the noises from the
firecrackers outside, but a really loud one would cause him to stop
whatever he was doing.
 
So, my suggestion - just don't let them get close and it's sounds like
they won't be really close so they should be fine.
