This year the annual Wilford Robin Hood Festival of Fireworks will fall on Saturday November 3rd 2018, at Nottingham Moderns Rugby Ground, Wilford Village, NG11 7AA.
Stand by for a stunning display of impressive fireworks from the locally renowned pyrotechnic team from Crescendo Fireworks responsible for the dazzling displays at Highfields Lakeside, celebrating Chinese New Year, and Wilford Jubilee Celebrations.
We assure you of a display better than anything you will see locally - and not just one, but TWO DISPLAYS - WOW !
This year our main display will be based on a commemoration celebrating 100 years of the Royal Air Force, with music accompaniment.
With the new Wilford Village tram stop adjacent the event, travel couldn’t be easier, and the A453 improvements offer speedy direct access to the venue, or tram park and ride at Clifton South terminus. We offer excellent deals with tickets bought in advance from the internet, or local shops in Wilford, Trent Bridge & West Bridgford, and offer even better discounts for Earlybird ticket purchases online (only).
Our family ticket remains a firm favourite, with plenty to keep the children enthralled. Again, this year there will be two firework displays - a children's fantasy fireworks at 6.30pm, and our special RAF ‘Dambusting’ Fireworks, at 8.30pm, so don't be late - it's too good to miss !
Crescendo have promised a dazzling display - watch out for the latest fabulous fireworks, and the stunning grand finale, last years was truly awesome !
A small clean burn pallet bonfire is proposed to add a bit of warmth to the event, with due consideration for the environment
