Have you bought your tickets for the big bang?

Have you bought your tickets yet for the fireworks at Bourne Abbey Primary School on Saturday (3 November)?

We’re sponsoring the event again, as we did last year, and are looking forward to a spectacular night of ‘bangers and flash’.

Right now, the weather forecast for Saturday evening looks good. Dry and (relatively) warm – but still best to wrap up well.

As well as the fireworks and bonfire there will be live music (from Pads Lad and The Overdubs) and food stalls (Groovy Foods, Panjab and Georges Fish Bar).

Gates open at 4:00 pm, the official welcome from the mayor is at 4:15 followed by music and then the bonfire will be lit around 4:45.  There is a ‘low bang’ children’s firework display from 5:15, more music at 5:30, and then the main display of fireworks (with accompanying music) from 6:30.

Advance tickets are on sale at the school and at Greetings in The Burghley Centre in Hereward Road and Stringers decorating centre in Manning Road - £18 for a family of five, £7 for an adult and £3 for a child.

If you prefer to pay on the night, tickets on the gate are £22 for a family, £9 for an adult and £3 for a child. You can pay by card as well as cash.

There is more information on the event’s Facebook page. We look forward to seeing you by the bonfire!
