Explosions happen when a lot of stuff that was packed into a small space gets blown out very quickly into a large space. This requires a lot of energy, so it wouldn’t just happen in the vacuum of space, but it can happen inside stars. An exploding star is called a supernova.
even “empty” space can be thought as a continuous soup of creation of particles and antiparticles. These creations are measurable, so you can in principle have collisions even in pure vacuum
