A quick heads up - there has been a sign placed by the highways agency advertising our road closure is 6pm - 10pm. This is incorrect. The road closure is 6pm-midnight. Sorry for any confusion
Please note we will not be monitoring our social media platforms on Saturday 3rd November due to all volunteers being busy setting up for the evening
A reminder of our safety information for this weekend. Please see our facebook page for full details

Please do not pick up any discarded torches that you may see on the night. We have a team whose job it is to do that!

Top tips for not sounding like an idiot when mentioning Bonfire:
It's not a festival
It's a procession, not a parade
It's six different events happening at once, not a single event
Advertising your business off the back of it without donating to a society or charity is not cool
Have you picked up a programme yet? They will be available on the day from the merchandise stall on the Abbey Green from 10am - 4pm

Here are the planned timings for Saturday's event. As always they may be subject to change due to any unforeseen circumstances
ALT timings
If you plan to attend our event this Saturday please ensure you bring plenty of cash for two reasons:
1. There are no cash points in the town centre
2. You will want to donate some money to our charity collection as every penny collected is given away
Safety is a priority for BBB. Please ensure you have read our safety information prior to attending on November 3rd.
We advise that our event is not suitable for young children or those of a nervous disposition
