Bonfire Night 2010 at Glasgow Green

  













WHEN? 5th November 2010 7.30pm
WHERE? Glasgow Green
ADMISSION: Free

Celebrate bonfire night in Glasgow Green, with Glasgow’s infamous and spectacular musical fireworks display.

Last years fireworks display in Glasgow Green was the best yet.  More than 50,000 explosions were set to music, with the timing almost perfect, and the biggest shells in the UK being fired up into the night sky.

This years show is in association with Mamma Mia the musical, so we’ll be seeing the Glasgow Green fireworks display set to some of Abba’s greatest hits.  The Glasgow fireworks do seem to get better and better every year, so hopefully this year’s show will live up to it’s hype.

The night is not just about fireworks though; it also includes lasers, live bands, a funfair and food and drink stalls.  Enough to make sure that everyone is entertained!

The Glasgow fireworks show offers a free, safe and family oriented evening of fun.  Don’t miss one of the greatest events in Glasgow’s calendar!
