- Visitor Information
The annual charity fireworks display at Barking Park takes place on Saturday, the day after Bonfire Night, this year. The gates (at Longbridge Road main and middle entrances) open at 5.30pm and the funfair will begin soon after that. As well as fairground rides and stalls, activities include a concert stage showcasing the latest up and coming talent along with tribute acts playing popular chart songs. The music kicks off at 6.15pm creating a carnival atmosphere and mounting anticipation for the all-whizzing fireworks finale due to start at around 8pm for this popular family night day out, steeped in tradition and toffee apples. For safety reasons, personal fireworks, sparklers and alcohol will not be allowed in the park.About Barking Park
