New Year’s Eve Fireworks in Blackpool
Friday 31 December at 5pm
Say “goodbye” to 2021 and get ready to say “hello” to 2022 with a celebratory fireworks display. It takes place late afternoon on the Tower Festival Headland on New Year’s Eve.
In the depth of winter on New Year’s Eve dusk will arrive at not much past 3pm. So by late afternoon the sky will be dark so that all the family can enjoy the display.
The free fireworks will be launched around 5pm on December 31 from the beach in front of The Blackpool Tower. It’s a stunning finale to end the year.
Blackpool World Firework Championships is a favourite autumn event. On four nights at the beginning of Illuminations season, huge crowds gather at Blackpool seafront. Enjoy amazing fireworks set to music – and find out who will be the winner!
