On 4 November 2023, the Patchway Fireworks to Music extravaganza at Scott Park provided a very special night for our local community.
As the gates opened at 5pm, 2500 residents headed into the park for a feast of entertainment, thrills and fantastic food and drink. Crole’s Funfair provided screams of delight as Insania and the Twister threw people around, and smaller visitors were treated to the Tea Cups, Hook a Duck and many other ‘fun of the fair’ stalls.
Our 10 foot Stilt Walker provided a great photo opportunity, our Fire Eater gathered a huge crowd for her mesmerising show, and JoJo Sparkles made a welcome return with her balloon animals and other inflatable shapes.
Mini Concerts entertained the crowd from near the Pavilion and Snack Attacks café with three sets from the D Day Dollies, the Sundaes, and an End of the Show Finale.
Following an introduction and countdown from Mayor of Patchway, Cllr Dayley Lawrence, the Fireworks to Music display was awesome as it brilliantly combined music from across seven decades with a pyrotechnic display that took everyone’s breath away and literally lit up the sky for miles around.
The evening was delivered through the generous volunteer support of Town Councillors, local residents, Army Cadets, Scouts, plus the Council staff team; with kind sponsorship from AJ Mowers, Signature Sports Coaching, Westcoast Properties and Select Security Systems. And the big-heartedness of Patchway showed again with £380.24 raised for the Mayors Charity.
