Bonfire Society announces Hailsham celebrations will go ahead

Date:

Hailsham Bonfire Society has revealed its plans to hold the town’s 416th Bonfire celebrations in October this year.

The event will take place on October 16th and will host a ‘scaled back’ fireworks finale at the end of the parade at the Western Road Recreation Ground. 

The lack of fundraising activities due to COVID has meant the scale of the whole event will be slightly reduced – but still promises to be a night to remember, according to the organisers.

Other Bonfire Societies will descend on the town for the torchlight procession which will kick off from Vicarage Lane around 7:15pm. It will stop at the memorial in the High Street after a break where the traditional memorial ceremony will take place. The parade will use the same route as the 2019 procession and will end at Western Road before the fireworks.

More details  will follow soon on the Hailsham Bonfire Society website at hailshambonfire.org.uk.
