Join us for the 53rd Annual Ware Fireworks Display and the first one organised by Isabel Hospice (with help from the Rotary)!

Now in its 53rd year, the event has become a long standing community tradition for Ware residents.

This year’s event will be organised by Isabel Hospice, a local charity providing specialist palliative care to patients and families across eastern Hertfordshire.

The evening will include a bonfire, children’s entertainment, refreshments, and the fireworks display.

Gates open at 4:30pm, with the lighting of the bonfire at 6:00pm, followed by the fireworks display at 6:30pm.

Please note that there is NO PARKING available at the site and only very limited on-street parking in the immediate vicinity.

You are strongly advised to use the Car Parks in the town centre and make your way to the site on foot.

There are two entrances for the general public, Gate 1 and Gate 2, marked on the map below.

Your purchase of E-tickets will be confirmed by automated reply e-mail which will contain a booking reference per e-ticket purchased; each booking reference will contain a unique bar-code which acts as your entry ticket and MUST be printed out and presented at either gate. If you do not have a printer make sure the email and bar-code is available for scanning from your smart phone

The e-ticket bar-code will be scanned at either gate and the ticket collected in by ticketing staff. All tickets are checked via a real time software system – any duplicate tickets will be identified immediately . Should you present an e-ticket which has already been scanned to the database (i.e. it has been duplicated) you will be refused entry unless you pay to enter on the night.

Do not allow your ticket to be copied as we accept no responsibility for the loss or misuse of your e-ticket

Strictly no re-admittance for any ticket holders – once tickets are scanned in they cannot be reversed or reused

This is an outdoor charity event and we operate a ZERO RETURNS POLICY on all tickets. We have no control over the weather! Rain may dampen the spirit but will not prevent the display however in the event of very high winds the bonfire or the fireworks display may have to be reduced in size ,delayed or cancelled if necessary to ensure safety.

This event takes place in a field. Wear appropriate clothing and footwear

Your personal details will not be passed on or used by any third party other than by PAYPAL in connection with your payment for your e-ticket
