Buckingham Town Council is delighted to invite residents to the annual Bonfire and Fireworks event which will be held on Saturday 31^st October 2026.  This free event takes place in Bourton Park Paddock, and we invite the community to come together for an evening of entertainment and a dazzling fireworks display.

Running from 6pm to 8pm, the event features a torch-lit parade, brilliant fireworks, a great bonfire and live music from DJ Dan Blaze.

Visitors can also enjoy a vibrant selection of food and drink from local vendors, including J&L Snacks, Silverstone Brewery, and Crazy Bird. Adding to the festive atmosphere, Mr Glow will be on hand with a colourful range of glow products to light up the night.

Buckingham Town Council is committed to ensuring a safe and enjoyable experience for all attendees.  Visitors are asked to follow the guidance of event stewards and staff at all times.  For safety reasons, personal fireworks and sparklers are prohibited at the event.

Those attending are encouraged to walk to the event where possible. If travelling by car, visitors should use Cornwalls Meadow Car Park and follow the clearly marked route through the park to Bourton Park Paddock.  Parking close to the event site is extremely limited.
