Fireworks and Bonfire 2026

Absolutely no sparklers. These are extremely dangerous, especially in crowds. Sparklers cause severe burns and children’s eyes are at a particularly vulnerable height.

We maintain the right to confiscate sparklers at the entrance gate as a condition of entry.

The venue opens at 6:00pm with great food. The bonfire is lit around 6:30pm and the fireworks will begin around 7:30pm.

Don’t leave it to arrive too late as their may be a queue at the gate just before the fireworks. Arrive early to beat the queues and get the most of your night Bridge of Allan Bonfire Night.

The residential area surrounding Strathallan Games Park will have temporary parking restrictions in place. Please do not attempt to park here.

This is because we need the streets clear to allow easy access for emergency vehicles if this becomes necessary. At the close  of the event, these streets will be very busy with pedestrians and it will become very difficult to move cars.

Free car parking is available at Stirling University, FK9 4LA.

The fireworks are at their best right inside Bridge of Allan Games Park. From here you can enjoy the heat of the bonfire and hear the fireworks matched to music as they were intended.

The Bridge of Allan Fireworks is a community event organised by Stirling and Bridge of Allan Round Table. Delivering such a great show is very expensive. If no one paid, we would have no money to put on the fireworks and the event would come to an end. Any profits made over costs are donated to local causes.

If you would like to support the fireworks but cannot make it to the Games Park, you can make a donation online with Just Giving through this link.

Within the Games Park, Bridge of Allan Round Table will be selling souvenirs and toys with all profits being returned to local good causes.

Every year, unauthorised street traders work the streets around Bridge of Allan Games Park selling light-up children’s toys. These sellers are not connected to the event and are not operating for charity.

Please do not attempt to park in the nearby streets as clear access is required for emergency vehicles and pedestrians.
