One of the region's biggest and most popular fireworks displays will be making a comeback in November after an absence of two years.
Saltwell Park Fireworks, which traditionally attracts crowds of around 30,000, will return with a huge Bonfire Night celebration including a laser show, live music and fairground rides. Tickets are on sale now for the Gateshead event which will feature added entertainment and food and drink stalls.
It will take place in the Victorian park on Bonfire Night itself, November 5, and is set to be warmly welcomed back by families who have missed their traditional outing to the display which last took place in 2019. Having been cancelled in 2020 because of the pandemic, it again was called off last year due to concerns over Covid cases which were on the rise at the time.
