Warwick Town Bonfire Sat Nov 8th

Nights are drawing in, the leaves are falling, and plans for Warwick Town Bonfire are well advanced with organisers expecting big crowds at the event which is being held on Sat Nov 8th at Warwick racecourse

Tickets are selling well, and organisers say that their website is proving popular with people across Warwickshire booking their tickets in advance!

Gates open at 5pm with free parking at the racecourse, and the Bonfire will be lit at 6.30 by the Mayor. Come early and enjoy hot food and drinks, candy floss, and a children’s fun area with bouncy castle.

David Shore, Chairman of the organisers said “last year numbers were down due to the stormy weather and we are hoping for better attendance this time. We’re expecting a great night, we have a super Firework show, and would encourage people to make a saving, and buy their tickets in advance.”

The organisers, Warwick Rotary Club and Warwick Lions, raised over £12,000 last year for local charities and good causes.

Sponsorship has been provided by local businesses Warringtons, and The Tuckery, with pallets for the bonfire being provided by Unipart. Taylor Wimpey builders at Chase Meadows are sponsoring the Guys competition at local schools.
