Shocking footage has captured the moment Sabrina Carpenter screamed as a firework exploded next to her on stage.

The 'Please Please Please' singer was performing at San Francisco’s Golden Gate Park when the incident took place on Saturday (August 10).

Footage shared on Twitter shows Carpenter, 25, screaming and covering her mouth as she clambered down a platform while the pyrotechnics lit up around her.

She appeared frightened and ran to another section of the stage as dancers continued to perform around her, with some reports suggesting she may have been 'hit in the chest' by the firework.

However, Carpenter is said to have come away from the incident without injury and chose to ignore the incident when she later posted about her performance on social media.

"Special thank you to the angel that is Kacey Musgraves for coming out to sing and dance to Nancy Sinatra with me. And thank you to my whole team and crew.

"All the talented people who made this show happen on and off stage, I love you all so much."

Though Carpenter appeared to be unscathed by the firework mishap, her fans were left concerned after the footage emerged online.
