Hitchin’s Guy Fawkes Night fireworks are to return this year on November 5 – and there will be a beer tent, bonfire and much more to enjoy.

After no major display in the town last year on Bonfire Night, fireworks will light up the sky at Hitchin Priory on Sunday, November 5, 2017.

Organised by community company Ladder 87 alongside Skyfiller Fireworks, tickets are on sale now.

The Ladder 87 team, owners of much-loved Hitchin fire engine Dennis, have stepped up to put on the fireworks for the first time this year.

Adult tickets cost £6 each in advance, with under-14s at £3 each, and a £14 family ticket offered for two adults and two under-14s.

You can also pay on the gate from 5pm.

Adults tickets on the night will be £8, under-14s £5, and family £20.

The family fireworks display will start at 7pm.
