SATURDAY 4 NOVEMBER
NORTH WALLS

Winchester Round Table Bonfire & Fireworks is scheduled to go ahead as planned.

Your safety is our top priority and our display is run by fireworks professionals. The forecast for Saturday evening indicates showers with lighter winds and the predicted conditions are well within the safety window to put on a display for everyone to enjoy.

The display arena is a recreation ground, so please remember to wear appropriate footwear and wrap up to stay warm and dry.
