Gates open at 6 pm, giving you plenty of time to grab a hot drink, find the perfect viewing spot, and maybe attempt to guess what shape the next firework will be. The fireworks will burst into action at 7:30 pm, lighting up the skies while raising funds for The Hospice of St Francis and The Daylight Club.
