Farnham Round Table has run the town's bonfire night since 1976. Hundreds of torch bearers follow a pipe band from Waggon Yard up Castle Street to Farnham Park, where the guys are judged, the bonfire is lit and a professional display ends the evening.
Highlights
- Torchlit procession led by the Reading Scottish Pipe Band
- Taiko drummers and fire performers on three stages
- Bonfire with guys made by local schools and groups
- Street food and a bar from 5pm
Good to know
- Tickets are online only, with none on the gate
- No parking in the park; use town centre car parks (Waggon Yard is closed) and walk up
- The park is grassy, hilly and usually muddy, so pushchairs are best left at home
- Sparklers are not allowed
