2 Nov 2022

If you’re coming to Fireworks Night at The 1st Central County Ground, check out our visitor information to ensure you make the most of your visit.  The event is still scheduled to go ahead, although we advise wearing suitable clothing based upon the weather forecast. 

Getting here

With a capacity crowd of 7,500 tickets sold for the event and parking on site unavailable, we highly recommend that you arrive on foot and via public transport. Vehicles are unlikely to be able to drop spectators off on Eaton Road and other roads around The 1st Central County Ground.

Please note: Road closures may be enforced if access to the ground becomes too limited and unsafe, both before and after the event begins.

Information on how to get here can be found here.

Arrival

All visitors must enter via the main entrance located at the South end of the ground, via Eaton Road. Security checks will be in operation, we therefore encourage visitors to arrive no later than 6:45pm, to ensure you do not miss the fireworks display.

No tickets on the gate

The event is now sold out; therefore, no tickets will be available on the night. Please only come to The 1st Central County Ground if you have already purchased a ticket.

Event timings

Gates will be open for Hospitality guests from 5:30pm, with general admission open from 6:00pm.

The display will get underway at 7:30pm.

Food and beverages

Whether you’re after some grub, a hot drink to warm you up, or even an alcoholic beverage, we will have you covered.

If it’s food you’re after, we have a number of units selling pizzas, noodles, burgers, loaded fries and more.

You’ll also find several places to purchase hot drinks, lagers, wines and soft drinks.

Please note: The 1st Central County Ground is a cashless venue, so please plan accordingly.

Visitors are not permitted to bring their own food and drinks into the ground, thank you for your understanding.

Leaving the ground

As with leaving the ground, we anticipate the surrounding roads will be extremely busy, therefore if you are being picked up by car, please arrange to do so away from the ground.

Road closures can be enforced if traffic becomes too busy and unsafe.

We look forward to welcoming you to The 1st Central County Ground for a spectacular night of fireworks!
