Torpoint Scouts Bonfire & Fireworks

An annual community bonfire and a firework display at Thanckes Park. Refreshments will be on sale but there will be no entry fee.

Torpoint Community Bonfire & Firework Event!

Last year's Bonfire event was successful so this November we are doing it all again.

Your support was amazing and the feedback has enabled us to improve the way we organise the evening. A bigger refreshment area is planned and there is still NO entry fee.

BUT

As you can imagine the fabulous pyrotechnics are not cheap and whilst we have received a few very generous donations towards the cost we do need to raise funds for this and future years.

If you could make a donation, however small, it would be amazing. Don’t forget to add GIFT AID if you are a UK tax payer. This will add a further 25% to your donation.
