Monday August 14

Monday August 21

Monday August  28 (Bank Holiday)

All the firework displays, organised by Weymouth Town Council, will take place at 9.30pm.

Mayor of Weymouth, Cllr Kate Wheller said: “With the first display at the end of this month, we know these events will be a big draw to residents and people visiting Weymouth over the summer, boosting tourist numbers in the town.

“The firework events across Weymouth Bay always create a great atmosphere and it’s also great to have two extra dates on the 7th and 21st August, which are sponsored by Weymouth Bay and Littlesea who are part of Haven Holiday Park.”

Kristie Clark, Head of Holiday Home Revenue at Haven Littlesea Holiday Park, said "We value our ongoing relationship with the town council which allows us to sponsor the great work of the council’s resort team.

"It is a key partnership which benefits both parties and the firework displays are a terrific example of benefiting the enjoyment of Weymouth community residents and visitors alike”

Where possible, people are encouraged to leave their cars at home and walk or use public transport when getting to and from displays.
