TICKETS are now available for the Craven Arms Community Bonfire and Fireworks at Shropshire Hills Discovery Centre.

Following on from the success of the event last year, the staff at the centre are staging their bonfire and firework display again this year on Saturday, October 27 and this event promises to be even bigger and better than before! With children’s rides, a body glitter stall and children’s entertainment, there will be plenty to do before the firework spectacular! There will also be a glow stall, a hog roast and full bar from Wood’s Brewery.

Sponsored by ATS, Titanium Fireworks (responsible for the jaw dropping displays in London on New Years’ Eve) will be putting on an astounding display and Sunshine Radio will be bringing their street team for children’s entertainment.

Advance, fast track tickets are discounted: £3.00 per adult, £1.50 per child and £7.50 for a family of 2 adults and 3 children. People can pick these up from the centre reception or from Cyril Bason. On the gate, tickets will be £3.50 per adult, £2.00 per child and £10.00 for a family (2 adults, 3 children).

The bonfire will be lit at 6.30pm and fireworks at 7pm with a car and refreshments available.
