Guildford Lions Firework Fiesta 2024 Saturday 2nd November, from 5pm
This remains a charitable event and ALL profits will be used to support our local community through our Guildford Lions welfare fund and also the Oakleaf Enterprise who support people with mental health issues.
We are excited to announce that our live music this year will feature “The Hired Guns” a high energy party band playing The Killers, George Ezra, Kings of Leon, Taylor Swift. The band is a supergroup of world-class session musicians who play all over the world for the likes of James Bay, Nile Rodgers, James Morrison, One Direction, Fatboy Slim, Reef, Electric Six and countless others!
We are again creating a Children’s Entertainment area, with kiddies fairground rides, a face painters, famous characters to meet, and an opportunity to buy glow in the dark toys etc.
The stunning finale will be our fireworks display which will again be provided by Pains Fireworks the largest fireworks company in the UK.
We are thrilled our MC will be the brilliant Peter Gordon!
TICKETS
Whilst our expenses have again increased substantially this year we remain determined to keep this event as accessible to all as far as we possibly can.
The adult ticket price will increase from £12 to £12.50 but the booking fee will now be a flat £1 rather than 10% as in previous years.
This means the increase over last year’s price is just 30p.
Accompanied children under 16 will again be FREE
This will be an all ticket event again with NO sales on the night.
Early bird tickets for adults priced at £10 (plus £1 booking fee) will be available via SeeTickets from August 1st until August 31st.
Here is some useful information which we hope will allow to you plan your evening.
