Richmond's Family Fireworks Night: Halloween Spooktacular Sunday 1st November 2026
Richmond’s biggest fireworks night returns this Halloween weekend for a spectacular evening of family entertainment, in association with Sneller Commercial.
Watch a Halloween-themed fireworks display fully choreographed to music by multi-award-winning Phoenix Fireworks. Before the display, enjoy the funfair, more than 20 food and drink stalls, the return of the legendary 1861 BBQ and live entertainment from 5.30pm, with acts to be announced soon.
Gates open at 4.30pm, Happy Hour runs until 5.30pm, and the fireworks begin at 7pm. The funfair and stalls stay open until 9pm, and the bars until 11pm.
Book early: the event sold out in 2022, 2023, 2024 and 2025, and Grandstand tickets are always the first to go.
