Blackheath Fireworks return with a bang this November

At Full Council on Wednesday 16 July, Cllr Sakina Sheikh announced Lewisham Council would be partnering with a leading events company to bring back Blackheath Fireworks.

Set to light up the skies this autumn, the event promises a fun-filled evening for the whole family, complete with a lively programme of activities. 

Cllr Sakina Sheikh, Cabinet Member for Culture, Communities and Sports said: 
“It has been a delight to bring this good news to the Borough! We know residents have to leave Lewisham each autumn to seek firework displays elsewhere in London and have been eager to find a way to bring back the Blackheath Fireworks. Now our residents can enjoy fireworks here at home in the Borough and invite visitors to join. We’re excited to partner with a leading events company to make this happen and are committed to making this return as accessible and affordable as we can.

“We aim to keep ticket prices as fair as possible so that as many people as possible can enjoy the day. One way we are doing this is to reduce the site hire fee for the organisers to ensure that ticket prices are kept low, because we are putting our resident's experience first"

“The event will take place on Saturday 1 November 2025, from 4-10.30pm and promises a vibrant atmosphere featuring a show stopping fireworks display alongside on-site entertainment, market stalls, and more.”

Further details and information on how to buy tickets will be released in September.
