Wheatfields Fireworks Extravaganza 2026

Wheatfields Junior School is hosting its annual Wheatfields Fireworks Extravaganza on Sunday 8 November, a family-friendly charity display in St Albans. It's a drop-in event open to everyone, so you don't need to be part of the school community to turn up and watch.

There's a good reason for the charity tag: all the profits are split equally between Wheatfields Infants' and Nursery School and Wheatfields Junior School. It's a local effort that goes back into the two schools, so whatever you spend on the night helps them both out.

Local businesses have stepped in to support it, too. Heartwood Homes is the Gold Sponsor, Abbey Law is the Silver Sponsor, and Making Waves Swimming is a general sponsor. It's a community-backed evening, and the fireworks are the main event.

On the practical side, the gates open on Downes Road at 4pm, the fireworks start at 5.10pm, and the gates close at 6.30pm. That gives you a good window to get in and find a spot before the display kicks off. The venue is Wheatfields Junior School, Downes Road, St Albans, AL4 9NT.
