Watford Borough Council announces the return of Hertfordshire’s largest free fireworks display at Cassiobury Park

What time does the show start?

The evening will kick off at 6pm with live music, hosted by us here at Vibe 107.6 FM. Locally loved band ‘Pat and the Butchers’ will be performing on stage to keep up the fun before the fireworks light up the night sky at 7:30pm.

What else is there to do?

The park will be filled with fun for all ages including kids’ funfair rides, bungee trampolines, and a bouncy slide! With food and drink outlets open offering treats to keep everyone fuelled for a dazzling evening.

Ways to get involved?

Watford Lions Club and other volunteers will be collecting donations for local charities. Please give generously as 100% of your donations will go to these worthy causes. If you want to do more, why not become a volunteer, all you have to do is shake a charity collection bucket while enjoying the bright night. If you can’t make it or miss the collectors on the night, don't worry, you can still show your support by donating via the JustGiving page.

Commenting on the upcoming night, elected mayor of Watford, Peter Taylor said: “Join us at Cassiobury Park for the Bonfire Night fireworks. This fantastic event is free for everyone, making it accessible to all members of our community. If you can, please consider donating or volunteering as a bucket shaker, as every contribution helps support local initiatives and enhances future events. I hope to see you there!”

This annual event promises to be an unforgettable evening of family fun, music, and spectacular fireworks.
