Due to our rural setting, we will be reducing noise by using a selection of quieter fireworks; giving an entertaining, colourful display but keeping the noise level lower for our local farmyard friends & pets!

The bar & our coffee shop will be serving hot & cold drinks. A meat & potato or cheese pie & supper will also be available (From 6pm, fireworks approx 7pm).

We also have a glow stall this year for some added sparkle!

Food is kindly provided by Belthorn Academy Primary School and sold in aid of the village committee. We are working in partnership on this event - there won't be a charge but donations towards village committee funds on the night will be gratefully received. Everyone welcome.
