Rotary Bonfire & Fireworks 2024
Following our disaster with the fireworks last year, and cancellation after Storm Babet and storm Ciaran flooded the field, and the losses that impacted on the Rotary Club members, the club has decided to move venues to Kibworth Golf Club. We take this opportunity to thank David Briggs for the use of his field and assistance with the bonfire over many years.
Kibworth Golf Club provides an area of standing on hard ground in their carpark and the bonfire will be sited on the golf range. It also is a more central venue and removes the necessity for a couple of thousand folk crossing the ever busier A6!
We are very grateful to the golf club for approaching us and some of the proceeds will go to young golfers. The rest of the money raised will go to local youth activities and local Rotary Projects.
Watch out for posters and info on social media regarding ticket purchase. The price will remain the same, discounted pre-event £8 Adult and £4 for children. Under 5s free. On the night £10 adult and £5 children. The local Scouts and Guides will be present, as always, offering hotdogs and burgers. There will be additional catering, so no one will go hungry. We have to advise you that the golf clubhouse and toilets will not be in use for the duration of the event. There will also be no on-site parking , so we ask attendees to be respectful of local residents.
The gates will open on Saturday 2 November at 5.30pm, bonfire 6.15pm and fireworks 6.45pm.
