The new organisers of the Quex Park fireworks event say they are devastated that the display was unable to go ahead yesterday (November 4)
A decision was made shortly before the event car park would have opened that it was not safe to go ahead due to poor conditions caused by bad weather.
It had been hoped to reschedule the event run by the Cain’s Amusements family business but they say this has not been possible and ticket-holders will be issued full refunds.
In a statement on the Quex Fireworks facebook page they say: “ We’re very sorry (yesterday) didn’t happen as planned. After careful consideration, we are unable to offer a new date for this event in the near future. Therefore, we will be issuing full refunds to everyone who purchased tickets.
“As a team and an event family, we are truly devastated that we were unable to deliver the event that we dreamed of.
“We understand your frustration at the timing of the announcement, but we were trying everything to deliver a safe event with as little disruption as possible, but in the end, this could not be done.
“We will be back stronger than ever and will try to give you the best and safest event in 2024.”
