Councillor Judi Gasser, Cabinet Member for Environment, said: “We’re thrilled to bring back Battersea Park Fireworks, an event that has become a cornerstone of our community celebrations.

“This year, through our Access for All scheme, we’re ensuring more residents can enjoy this spectacular display.

“It's a fantastic opportunity for everyone to come together, experience world-class fireworks, and create lasting memories with family and friends. We’re committed to making events like this inclusive and accessible to all.”

Saturday 2 November: Fireworks Night - Doors 6pm, display approx. 8.30pm
Experience the awe-inspiring fireworks display on Saturday, created by the same team behind London’s famous New Year's Eve show, Titanium Fireworks. The spectacle will be accompanied by live music, fairground rides, and a range of delicious food, warming drinks and tipples to keep you cosy. But that’s not all—this year’s pre-show entertainment is bigger and better than ever, with even more performances.

Post-show the Whizzbang Wonderland Afterparty is set to be unforgettable under The Big Top Tent with MASSAOKE®️ - the ultimate sing-along! Known for touring worldwide and performing at top festivals like Glastonbury and Edinburgh Fringe, MASSAOKE®️ is set to deliver a show packed with sequins, spandex, and hairbrush anthems. Sing along to your favourite hits with lyrics on giant screens while the band lights up the stage.

The excitement ramps up as our DJ spins hit tracks until 11.30pm, keeping the energy high and the dance floor packed. Don’t miss out on this festive celebration—an unforgettable way to end your day.

Sunday 3 November: Family Fireworks Night - Doors 4.30pm, display approx 7pm
Sunday brings a more relaxed and family-focused atmosphere, perfect for all ages. Enjoy a special selection of kid-friendly fun and entertainment, culminating in a unique and dazzling fireworks display. Fairground rides, tasty treats, and warming beverages will be available throughout the evening to make sure there’s something for everyone. You won't want to miss The Octonauts as they take you on a live adventure.

For our youngest fans, we’re excited to welcome a live adventure with Captain Barnacles and Kwazii, who invite you to become Octonaut Cadets! This interactive experience encourages audience participation, transporting you into the Octo Station and a world of ocean exploration. Character appearances will take place at intervals throughout the evening, each lasting approximately 15 minutes, ahead of our fireworks display. Expect stories, singalongs and more!

Book tickets for Sunday's display.

In addition to some incredible performances, Battersea Park Fireworks will feature a variety of top-tier street food stalls and bars offering tasty meals and festive drinks. With something for everyone, it’s no wonder last year’s event sold out quickly—so don’t wait to grab your tickets!

Wandsworth Council’s Battersea Park Fireworks takes its environmental considerations seriously; no single-use plastic will be issued, and fireworks provider Titanium Fireworks is partnered with a UK tree planting scheme to offset the footprint of all explosives and their journey to the event.
