My 2 ahalf yr old has crazy fears of fireworks. Hes waking up at night and only wants to be in my bed. He is not verbal. Any ideas how do calm him down?

Maybe show him outside? If he sees what it is it may calm his fears. The sound is scary but the visual is beautiful

Yes and have him wear noise-cancelling headphones while he watches them.

This sounds like a self limiting problem. Just wait it out, hopefully by next year he won’t be afraid anymore
