Richmond's Family Fireworks Night 2025
Come to Richmond's premier fireworks display on Sunday 2nd November 2025. Every year we stage a spectacular evening of family fun with a fully composed fireworks display to music, attracting thousands of spectators.
The display is being held in association with Sneller Commercial, a proud long-term sponsor of Richmond Rugby.
Enjoy a fantastic fireworks show for all ages. Gates will open at 16:30hrs when the funfair and all the stalls will be open. There will also be a 'Happy Hour' in Richmond Athletic Ground's bars from 16:30hrs to 17:30hrs.
You will find an array of food on offer from hamburgers and hot dogs through to crepes, churros and donuts; mulled wine; teas & coffees and a fully licensed bar. Basement Door, the Richmond based charity, will be entertaining the crowds on the main pitch from 18:00hrs along with Studio K and Resolution Dance - two locally based dance companies. The glittering fireworks display, choreographed to iconic tunes, begins at 19:00hrs.
PLEASE ARRIVE EARLY TO AVOID DISAPPOINTMENT. For security reasons, all bags will have to be searched so please allow extra time - last entry is at 18:30hrs.
The fireworks display will be finished by 19:30hrs however, the funfair and stalls stay open until 21:00hrs. Thereafter, the Murray Judd Room will be open until 23:00hrs so you can carry on the party.
