The "biggest firework display in Cornwall" will be held at the Falmouth Cricket Club on Monday November 5.

Organised by the Falmouth Community Fire Station, the event will see more than £8,000 worth of fireworks let off in what has become one of the year's most anticipated evenings.

The display will be set to music provided by Pirate FM with fire eaters to entertain the crowd before the main event.

Hot and cold drinks will be available, and entry is £4 for adults and £2 for children.

All children attending this year's display must be accompanied by an adult.

Local charities and genuine good causes are invited to apply to be considered for a share of the proceeds. A small proportion of any money made will go to support the activities of the Social and Welfare Club, including the costs of hosting this firework event.

Anyone wishing to apply should do so in writing to the Social and Welfare Club, Falmouth Fire Station, Trescobeas Road, Falmouth, TR11 2LQ.

The gates open at 6pm and the display will start promptly at 7pm, with the public encouraged to get there in good time as huge crowds arriving at once make it very difficult to get everyone into the ground on time.

Parking around the area is limited, so visitors are asked to ensure they park legally and considerately.
