Walsall firework events set to light up the sky
Published on
Tickets are now available to purchase for Walsall Council’s two fireworks events this November.
The fireworks spectaculars will take place on Saturday 1 November 2025 at Walsall Arboretum and on Wednesday 5 November 2025 at the King George V Playing Fields in Bloxwich.
The Arboretum's event will feature live music, with headliners The Briefcase Blues Brothers providing a fun romp through some of the most influential and soulful music ever!
King George V Playing Fields' event will include a laser show, and Black Country radio presenter Dicky Dodd will bring his signature energy and charm to the stage.
Both events will include fairground rides provided by Pat Collins Funfairs and a variety of food stalls in what promises to be an entertaining evening for the whole family to enjoy.
“ Our firework events are very popular and a firm favourite with families across the borough, offering a spectacular evening of entertainment. They’re great value for money and always sell out quickly so please book early to avoid disappointment.
“With stunning fireworks and traditional family funfair, it’s a wonderful opportunity for our residents to come together in a safe and fun-filled environment. “
