A Bonfire Night display in Lancashire has been named among the best in the UK in a list by The Telegraph.
From pumpkin patches to fireworks, it’s the time of year when there are plenty of activities and celebrations to look forward to.
If you’re looking for somewhere to see this year’s fireworks on Bonfire Night, look no further as one of Lancashire’s is up there among the UK’s best.
Firework displays across the UK feature in the list but Gisburne Park Estate’s display was the only Lancashire one to feature.
Why is Gisburne Park Estate’s Bonfire Night display among the UK’s best?
Gisburne Park Estate’s Bonfire Night display is more than just fireworks and a bonfire.
The Telegraph said: “As well as a fireworks display and a bonfire that claims to be northern England’s largest, this family-friendly event features fire dancers, a bubble machine and designated sparkler area.
“Plus an afterparty with live music and DJs until late.”
The newspaper has shared the details for those wanting to attend – the event will take place on Saturday, November 2 with the fireworks starting at 7.30pm.
The bonfire will start an hour earlier at 6.30pm and gates open from 3pm. Live music starts at 4pm.
To enter, you’ll need to pay a fee - £16.96 for adults and £11 for children but those aged two years and under can enter free of charge.
For those wanting to stay nearby, The Telegraph recommends Stirk House which has double rooms for £170 per night with breakfast included.
