The organisers of one of Norfolk’s biggest Bonfire Night fireworks displays are asking everyone who wants to attend to buy their tickets in advance.

More than 5,000 people turned out for last year’s display at Wymondham Rugby Club, filling the ground to capacity.

Plans for this year’s event - on Friday 4th November - include a bigger fireworks display, a spectacular fire show in the build-up, more on-site catering and a bigger funfair with more rides for children.

“It’s become a massive event in the town and last year after lockdown so many people turned up we just couldn’t get everyone in.” said organiser Dan Cane.

“So, this time we’re asking for people’s help to keep the queues to a minimum. Please buy your tickets in advance - and please don’t leave it until the last minute to turn up!”

The gates at the club’s Barnard Fields ground off Bray Drive open at 5pm. There will be a fairground, food vendors, bars and concessions before the fireworks start around 8pm.  

Tickets cost £6 for adults and teenagers, £4 for under-12s and children under four are free.

Onsite parking must be booked ahead at £5, though organisers are encouraging people to leave their cars behind if they can.

Dan said: “We’ve got space for plenty of cars but that inevitably means a lot of traffic builds up on local roads - the best advice is, if you can walk or share a ride, then please do.”
