Bonfire & Fireworks at Astley Park

Friday 5 November 2021

Join us in Astley Park, Chorley to celebrate Bonfire Night on Friday 5 November with a traditional bonfire and spectacular fireworks display from 6.30pm – 8pm.

This is a fun event for all the family with the bonfire lit at 7pm and the fireworks display at 7.30pm. Entry to the event is FREE, however donations are welcome on the night for the Mayor’s  nominated charities.

There’ll be a range of food and drink stalls so you can purchase a bite to eat, including seasonal treats such as new potatoes, black peas, toffee apples, boozy coffee, hot mulled gin and more!
 
There’ll be children’s rides on the field in front of Astley Hall Coach House (these attract a charge).
