Firework displays will return to Broadstairs this summer across July and August.
The Broadstairs Fireworks Events team has organised yet another year of summer shows and events on Wednesdays beginning July 24th.
Aside from the displays, there will also be an array of live music from 8pm.
Kicking off in three weeks’ time, the first firework evening will be Water Gala day. The Water Gala is an annual event that started in Broadstairs back in 1888 and consists of beach and water activities for the whole family.
In the evening, the Bandstand will welcome The Decades Showband for their performance before the firework display begins. All bands will start at 8pm, followed by the fireworks at 9:45pm on Viking Bay.
There will also be a fun fair and food stalls on Victoria Gardens remaining open until the display is over on Victoria Gardens.
There will be another display the following week, July 31st, where The Nylon Tigers will be performing at the Bandstand, again at 8pm.
While the bands perform, food and drink will also be available to buy from the Bandstand café.
The following dates are scheduled for the end of August. Wednesday 21st will see The Dial taking to Bandstand stage, and finally the 28th will feature the very popular Ozzie and the Uglies to close out the firework season.
All events are free entry to the public for everyone to enjoy and are put on by the volunteers who take time every year to organise the events. Sponsors include Thorley Taverns, Morelli’s, Harvey Waste Management as well as a grant from the town council.
To donate for future events, you can do so here, donations are also welcome on site.
