Would we see fireworks let off from the ISS if it were dark enough or would they be too far away?

They would have to be very big ones in the utter dark.

[wendilla]

Now you are asking something I can't answer. I would say probably not as it is the suns reflection on the Spacestation is why we can see it. As I presume you already know.
