More information

Winchester folk go bonkers for Bonfire night! Winchester Round Table presents a complete bonfire night spectacle that the whole city loves to get involved with proceeds going to local charities.

This isn’t just an evening event either, you can visit the Food Festival at the North Walls from 3pm and enjoy coffee and donuts, burgers and hotdogs, pizza, dessert cups, and a bit of tipple from local artisan street food vendors before the procession and displays.

Flaming torch procession

The highlight of the event comes next, the torchlit procession. This annual tradition is amazing to watch and even better to be a part of, starting from Broadway at 6pm join in the procession for free. To up your game, buy a wax torch and walk along the route up the High Street and across Jewry Street before heading across to the North Walls where the bonfire and fireworks display will be held. While walking the procession, you’ll have a chance to purchase some official Bonfire merchandise, making a great memento for your time in the city and you’ll be helping a local charity.

Massive bonfire

After making it up the hill through the High Street and towards the North Walls, those with tickets will be able to enter the grounds to witness the lighting of the bonfire around 7:15pm. Watching the huge effigy go up in flames is the perfect time to grab another coffee and have a chat with your mates before the sparkling firework display starts at 7:45pm.
