The skies above historic Newby Hall and Gardens will burst into spectacular pyrotechnic displays this August when the estate hosts its annual Fireworks Championships on Saturday 22 August.
Three of the UK’s leading fireworks companies will compete for the title, each delivering a 10‑minute display choreographed to music, with visitors voting for their favourite via SMS. The competition will conclude with a huge finale display, promising one of the most spectacular nights of the summer.
Stuart Gill, commercial director at Newby Hall:
Our annual fireworks championships feature stunning displays by some of the UK’s leading fireworks companies. It’s a popular evening of entertainment for all the family set in the beautiful parkland at Newby.
Gates open at 4pm, giving visitors plenty of time to enjoy a picnic with friends and family before an 8.45pm drone show and the first fireworks at 9pm. Camping is available from 1pm for those wishing to make a weekend of it.
Advance online tickets are £30 for adults, £20 for children, with under‑5s free. Camping costs £16 per adult, with under‑16s free. For more details and to buy tickets:Fireworks Championships 2026 – Newby Hall
