FOR over 50 years volunteers from the Worcester Round Table have organised the Bonfire and Fireworks celebrations at Worcester Racecourse to raise money for local good causes and charities.

All profits made at this bonfire are distributed throughout the year but more specifically during a series of open and informal evenings for which charities can submit requests. Due to the generosity of the Worcestershire public last year Round Table were able to support the below with over £ 15,000;

*The New Hope foundation for various projects and activities supporting children with a wide range of needs.

* Worcester Food Bank with food and essentials for the homeless community

*Kids Cancer charity with respite breaks for families in need.

*WMSAR with specialized gear and lifesaving equipment

*New College Worcester with support for partially sighted children and many other local good causes

Round Table has worked hard with the firework team, security, council and fair ground owners to make this community event even more family friendly and fun for all in a safe environment.

Gates will open at 5.30pm and the firework display will start 7.30pm on Saturday, November 3. To accommodate the youngest visitors and keep all warm we are lighting the bonfire at 18:15. We have new rides suitable for all ages.
