Remember, remember the 4th of November, gunpowder, treason, and plots…and remember also that the annual Town Bonfire and Fireworks is being held this Saturday at Warwick racecourse.
Warwick Mayor, Cllr Oliver Jacques visited Newburgh & Westgate Primary Schools to see Guys made by the children for the Bonfire. The Mayor was greeted by excited children with their guys to inspect and have pride of place next Saturday.
Come early and enjoy hot food and drinks, all the bars are open, as well as the traditional open air food stalls. The racecourse offers a dinner ticket in the Kingmaker Bar with a great view of the show.
Warwick Lions club are selling hot mulled wine, Kimberley Sweets will be back, and local Samba band Sambassadors of Sound will entertain everyone, with the grandstands and bars providing protection if it gets damp.
This year the show is set to music by award winning Fantastic Fireworks. Gates open at 5 pm and there will be a short children’s show at 6 before the bonfire is lit at 6.30pm followed by the main show.
