I don't have experience with this yet, but here are some links with advice.  Last year I was sitting near a photographer and he said the two most important things he does are 1) use a tripod and 2) cover the lens between bursts.

Subject: Photographing Fireworks

Does anyone out there have any expreience photographying fireworks? If not,
does anyone know where I can find information on technique, metering, and
film selection (B&W and color)?

Any help would be very much appreciated.

Thanks,
