No public New Year's Eve fireworks are announced in Weston-super-Mare for 2026. The Grand Pier's party is £80 with a four-course meal, 7pm to 1am, 18 and over.

No public New Year’s Eve fireworks display has been announced in Weston-super-Mare for 2026. Neither Weston-super-Mare Town Council’s events calendar nor the Grand Pier’s events list, both checked on 22 October, carries a midnight display. The one ticketed party on the seafront that is on sale is the Grand Pier’s New Year’s Eve Variety Spectacular, £80 a head with a four-course meal, from 7pm to 1am on Thursday 31 December, for over-18s only.

The Grand Pier’s New Year’s Eve Variety Spectacular

The pier’s own listing describes a four-course meal followed by a variety show and a countdown to midnight “overlooking the sea”. The line-up it gives:

  • Britain’s Got Talent’s Nick Page
  • singer Chloe Hawkins
  • 2Fat4That
  • magician David Andrews
  • live music from the Missing Cat Trio

Tickets are £80 per person, and include a welcome drink, the meal, the evening’s entertainment and a “survivors breakfast”. It runs from 7pm to 1am in the Regency Suite, and it is an 18+ event. The pier’s events team is on 01934 836 613 or events@grandpier.co.uk. (The Grand Pier)

On 22 October the listing showed tickets in stock. It does not say how many places there are.

Are there fireworks in Weston on New Year’s Eve?

Not that anyone has announced. Weston’s public displays are in November: the free Fireworks at Sea off the Grand Pier on Saturday 14 November, and the ticketed bonfire nights at the cricket club and in Clevedon before it. Our Weston fireworks page has the times and prices for all of them.

If a public midnight display is announced for 31 December, it will go on this page.

New Year’s Eve with children

The Playhouse pantomime, Aladdin, finishes its run on New Year’s Eve with performances at 11am and 3pm; the theatre’s box office lists both. Prices and the full run are on our panto page. (The Playhouse)

Two other winter attractions run over New Year. The Icescape ice rink at Puxton Park opens on 20 November; our ice rink page has its prices and dates. Christmas at Tyntesfield runs from 30 November to 3 January and the estate closes only on 24 and 25 December; its New Year’s Eve hours are on our Tyntesfield page.

Getting there and getting home

National Rail says services on some routes finish earlier than normal on Thursday 31 December. The last trains from Weston-super-Mare and back from Bristol will be in the Christmas timetables, which are covered on our Christmas train times page. Check them before you plan on a midnight train.

The Grand Pier is on Marine Parade. The council car parks along the seafront, and their tariffs, are on our parking in North Somerset page, and anything closed that week is on the roadworks and travel page.
