Firework Festival 2025

Guildford’s charity fireworks festival returns – Lighting up the sky for a great cause

Guildford’s much-loved Charity Fireworks Festival is back and set to dazzle on Saturday, November 8th, at Stoke Park GU1 1ER.

Organised by Guildford Lions Club, the annual event promises an unforgettable evening of music, lights, and fun — all in support of local charities. As always, 100% of the profits will go directly to helping those in need within the community.

Why it matters

The Charity Fireworks Festival is more than just an evening of entertainment – it’s a powerful way for the community to come together and make a difference. Every ticket sold helps fund vital services for local families facing some of life’s toughest challenges.
