Ignite Fire Festival sponsored by The Trade Centre UK, will again be transforming the square and gardens around Rochdale Town Hall, including new pathways and parkland on Broadfield Slopes, with more dazzling displays and entertainment. A spectacular show delivering a magical trail of blazing fire and lights, bigger and better than ever! Fiery displays, blazing sculptures and an incredible illuminated installation created by multi-award-winning outdoor arts specialists Walk the Plank will be open to walk through each evening, with the Christmas lights switch-on taking place on the Sunday.
Further details to be announced in October, but already confirmed are ‘Fireflies,’ as part of the Culture Co-op programme with Rochdale’s Skylight Circus Arts and interactive arts group Travelling Light Circus, alongside local residents trained up especially for the festival performing mesmerising fire spinning feats.
FREE ENTRY, no advance booking required.
A free immersive experience for all ages.
Father Christmas and his special guests, including the Mayor and Mayoress of Rochdale will officially switch-on the lights at 5.30pm on Sunday 22 November in front of the town hall after the traditional countdown, whilst the Ignite Fire Festival continues until 8pm.
This event is sponsored by The Trade Centre UK, the region’s largest car supermarket.
Organised by Rochdale Development Agency with support from Rochdale Borough Council, Ignite is funded by Rochdale Borough Council, Greater Manchester Combined Authority's Flexible Fund and Rochdale Development Agency in partnership with Walk the Plank and Culture Co-op.
