Two evenings of fireworks and a fun fair at The OurCoop County Ground, Derby's biggest fireworks display of the year.
Fireworks Weekend returns to The OurCoop County Ground on Friday 6 and Saturday 7 November, and it's a bit different this time around. Derby's biggest fireworks display usually runs as a single night, but this year it's spread across two evenings, so you can pick whichever one works best for you. The display itself is paired with a fun fair, and the whole weekend is one of the more anticipated dates in the Derbyshire calendar.
There are a couple of things to keep in mind before you book. The format is more intimate and mainly seated this year, with limited capacity because of ongoing ground improvement works at the cricket club. That means advance booking is highly recommended if you're planning to go. The venue is cashless, so you'll need a card or contactless payment for most things, though the fun fair rides and food units still take cash.
On the night, gates open at 4pm, the fireworks display starts at approximately 7pm, and the ground closes at 9.30pm. Tickets start from £5, with junior tickets for ages 6–15 and under-fives admitted free. If you're after something a bit more upmarket, there's a Premier Upgrade Lounge from £35, which gets you a hot buffet, dessert served to your table, a private bar and an exclusive viewing balcony for the display.
