Newcastle Round Table Fireworks Extravaganza

About This Event

2026 marks fifty years of the Gosforth Fireworks Extravaganza, run by the Newcastle Round Table on the Broadway West playing fields. It is the largest display in the area and the Round Table's biggest fundraiser of the year, with every penny raised going to charities and good causes across the North East. Gates open at 5pm. From then until 7pm a DJ from Sophie's Parties & Entertainment plays family sing-along favourites, including songs from Frozen, Moana and K-Pop Demon Hunters. The fire performers from Luna Tricks are back, and children can meet Spider-Man and Rumi and Mira from K-Pop Demon Hunters. The fireworks go up at about 7pm, set to music and promising more than 120 effects a minute, and the evening finishes around 8pm. The organisers suggest arriving early to beat the gate queues, and ask everyone to be on site by 6.45pm at the latest. Nobles Funfairs runs children's fairground rides in the car park, with food stalls, hot drinks, desserts and ice cream, and a light-up toy stand. The Gosforth Sports Association team serves mini hot dogs, pulled beef and pulled pork sandwiches, hot chocolate and mulled wine, and there is the clubhouse bar inside and a mobile can bar outside. Tickets are sold online only, with none on the night. Prices went up in stages through the autumn and have been at their final level since 29 September: adults (16 and over) £8.50, children aged 4 to 15 £6.50, a family of two adults and two children £25, or two adults and three children £28. TicketSource adds a booking fee, so an adult ticket comes to £9.16. Under-3s go free but still need a free ticket, and under-15s must be with a paying adult. There is no parking at the ground, so the organisers recommend the Metro. Regent Centre and Wansbeck Road stations are both within walking distance.
