IMPORTANT FIREWORK EVENT UPDATE

Unfortunately, due to forecast weather conditions, the World Fireworks Championship Blackpool on Saturday 10 October has been cancelled.

Following close monitoring throughout the week, the predicted wind speed and direction would make it unsafe for the event to go ahead.

We know this will be disappointing for everyone who was planning to attend, but the safety of our fireworks teams and spectators must come first.

We will review whether there may be an opportunity for the event to take place at a future date and will provide updates if appropriate.

Thank you for your understanding. ❤️
