Fireworks at Sea lights Weston bay from 6.30pm on Saturday 14 November 2026, free from the promenade. The local club displays have not fixed 2026 dates yet.

One North Somerset firework display has a confirmed 2026 date: Fireworks at Sea, over Weston bay, on Saturday 14 November, from 6.30pm to 8pm. It is free from the promenade. Bonfire Night itself falls on Thursday 5 November 2026, nine days earlier.

The date is on the Grand Pier’s own events list and in Visit Weston’s event record, which is where the timings and the parking arrangements below come from. (The Grand Pier, Visit Weston)

Fireworks at Sea: what you need

  • When: Saturday 14 November 2026, 6.30pm to 8pm.
  • Cost: free from anywhere along the promenade.
  • Where to stand: the promenade, Knightstone Island, or the clearing in Weston Woods for a view from above.
  • Parking: along Marine Parade Road. The manned entrance is at the Royal Sands Link Road, marshalled by volunteers from Weston Lions, who collect a donation per vehicle.
  • Dogs: the display is loud, and the organisers say it is not suitable for dogs other than assistance dogs.

If you want to watch from the pier itself, the Grand Pier sells three tiers: a standard ticket with unlimited rides, a gold ticket that adds a hot meal from the Boardwalk Cafe, and a table in Tiffany’s Restaurant with a two-course meal from 6pm and a private balcony viewing area. Prices are on the pier’s booking page rather than published as a flat list. (The Grand Pier)

One local point of order: the display lands the night after Weston-super-Mare Carnival, which is on Friday 13 November. That is two big seafront nights running, and the parking pressure on the Saturday starts with a town that has already had one.

The club displays: no 2026 dates yet

Weston’s other displays are run by sports clubs, and none of them had published a 2026 date when this page was written on 5 September. What is known about each:

Weston-super-Mare Cricket Club, Devonshire Road, BS23 4NY. Its bonfire and fireworks night ran on Saturday 8 November in 2025, with the display by Firestorm Pyro FX, a bonfire, food stalls, indoor and outdoor bars and a mini funfair. The club’s warning is the useful part: tickets sold out in advance in each of the previous three years and none were available on the gate. 2025 prices were £10 adult, £5 child under 16, £20 for two adults, £25 for a family of four, under-3s free, with £2 more on the gate if any were left. Its calendar has no 2026 entry yet. (Weston-super-Mare Cricket Club)

Portishead Town FC, Bristol Road, BS20 6QG. The club’s own website did not respond when checked on 5 September. The only dated record traced was a listing for Friday 7 November 2025, gates at 5.30pm, tickets from the clubhouse starting at £5. Treat that as last year’s, not this year’s. (Bristol Rocks listing)

Clevedon Cricket Club, Esmond Grove, BS21 7HW, has hosted the town’s display in past years. Nothing about a 2026 display appears on the club’s site.

Clevedon Town Council’s own events calendar carries committee meetings and nothing else through to early November, so there is no town-run display in the diary there either. (Clevedon Town Council)

A trap worth knowing

Search for “Weston bonfire night” and you will be offered a Bonfire and Fireworks Night at Weston Park on Sunday 8 November 2026. That is a different Weston. Weston Park is at Weston-under-Lizard, Shifnal, TF11 8LE, in Shropshire, about three hours up the M5 and M6. Check the postcode before you book. (Weston Park)

Setting off your own

North Somerset Council sets out the law plainly: you must be 18 or over to buy fireworks, and it is illegal to set them off between 11pm and 7am, except on Bonfire Night, when the cut-off is midnight, and on New Year’s Eve, Diwali and Chinese New Year, when it is 1am. (North Somerset Council)

Before you travel

Nothing has been published about road closures for Fireworks at Sea; the seafront carries the crowd on ordinary traffic arrangements plus the marshalled Marine Parade Road parking. For everything else that is shut across the district that week, see our roadworks and travel page, and for tariffs at the town’s car parks see parking in North Somerset.

This page

Written on 5 September 2026. Fireworks at Sea is confirmed by its organisers; the club displays are not, and the details given for them are explicitly last year’s. This page will be updated as the 2026 dates are announced, which for the cricket and football club displays has usually been late September or early October.
