Why should I come to the Matlock RFC Bonfire event over other Firework events?

Our show is unlike any other Bonfire firework event you have likely ever been to.  Our display will be to music with a huge lightshow too.  We also have a children’s display earlier in the evening and entertainment too.

 

If there’s a children’s display, is the main display suitable for children of all ages?

Absolutely, whilst the children’s display is made up of quieter fireworks with some loud bangs, the main display will still be suitable for all.

 

What is on?

As well as food & drink, there will be live entertainment, lighting of a bonfire, a children’s firework display, fire breathing performances, fair rides, face painting, glow toys, sweet stands, a licenced bar and much, much more!

 

Where can I park?

Free parking will be available on the field at Cromford Meadows next to the cricket pavillion.  On entry to the RFC car park on Mills Lane marshalls will guide you to a parking space. Parking is limited, so will be on a first come, first served basis.

 

Can I bring food/drink in from outside?

There will be food and drink stalls available for purchase on the night

 

Someone is selling glow toys outside the event, can I bring these onsite?

Unfortunately we cannot permit any glow toy items purchased outside of the event

 

Can I bring my own fireworks?

Please do not bring your own fireworks or sparklers.  These are a fire and safety risk and anyone with these items will not be permitted to enter the event.

 

Can I bring my dog to your event?

Only assistance dogs (Eg, guide dogs) will be permitted onto the site

 

What time are the different events on?

Gates open at 5pm, bonfire is lit at 6.30pm, kids display 7pm & main display 7.45pm.  Fair rides open from 5pm til late. Live music feat. Lady Rose after the main display. All timings are approximate and subject to change.
