Arcnight: Bonfire Night fireworks at Don Valley Bowl
Don Valley Bowl, Worksop Road, Sheffield
Arcnight is a new Bonfire Night show at Don Valley Bowl from the team behind Illuminate the Gardens at Sheffield Botanical Gardens. Gates open at 4pm. There is a sensory-friendly low-bangs display at 7:30pm for younger children and anyone who prefers a quieter show, then the main firework display at 9pm, set to music with a laser show to finish. In between there are DJs and live music, fire and walkabout performers, children’s activities, fairground rides, street food and bars. It is ticketed, so check prices and buy in advance on the organiser’s site, and plan your journey home: the event finishes at 9:30pm.
