Bradford set to welcome the festive season with dazzling firework display

Bradford Business Improvement District or Bradford BID, will stage a firework display at the City Centre on Saturday, 12 November.

The event drew a crowd of more than 10,000 people last year to what was dubbed Bradford’s biggest firework display in living memory.

Bradford BID – the limited company funded by more than 600 levy-paying businesses and organisations to help promote and develop the city centre – will organize the show at 7pm on 12 November to follow the switching on of Bradford’s Christmas Lights, 30 minutes earlier, and coincide with the start of the festive shopping and leisure season.

The professionally-organised and delivered display will be accompanied by music and should be visible across the city from within the Ring Road, with some rockets reaching up to 850ft high.

This year’s event will again be limited to 12 minutes and it will be a completely different display to that staged last year.

Chris Verheyden, artistic director of Frontier Fireworks who are staging the display, said: “After the glittering success of last years fireworks display, our team are back to perform a completely different and spectacular show from a new location.

“Expect to be wowed once again as Frontier Fireworks put the stars back over Bradford with sequences of mixed dahlia starflowers, silver and white strobes to represent Christmas over the city, crossette stars that dart and cross each other and so much more.

“Firing up to 850ft high we are going to race through exciting sequences including special rings and shapes and our massively popular Double Dragon Eggs shells that have taken the country by storm since we designed and imported them into the UK.

“Just wait until you see the finale that we will blast into the night sky for you all to enjoy. Thousands of stars are about to erupt over Bradford City so come out and see this amazing spectacle!”
