Description

Wakefield Council are seeking tenders for the planning, production and delivery of two free to access, low sound firework displays in Thornes Park, Wakefield on Saturday 5th November 2022

Thornes Park is Wakefield's main open space, less than a mile from the city center. The park is situated in a heavily residential area, with very limited parking.
Thornes Park offers 60 hectares of open space and is bordered by a large number of businesses and residential dwellings.

This event will have an advertised start time of 16:30 and an end time of 20:30. Both displays must consist of a strong combination of both visual and musical elements and appeal to a wide audience whilst being suitable for family audiences.
