MK'S FIREWORK SPECTACULAR: WHEN AND WHERE

It's one of the most popular dates on the MK calendar, and the central firework display returns to illuminate the skies above us, this weekend.

The free event will colour up the Keynes from 7.30pm this Sunday (Nov 1) evening, courtesy of Keith Emmett and Sons.

Wrap up warm and enjoy the spectacle, before heading over to Campbell Park for all the fun of the funfair, which opens for business on Thursday (Oct 29).

This year's star attraction, a mammoth 40 metre observation wheel, will be a focal point across town for the duration of the fair – which will be open and serving ride enthusiasts through to November 8.

Those of us who go a bit wobbly at the thought of stepping up to the dodgems or any other fair-fun that involves lots of movement, can still make tracks to the fair though...rides aside, it's the annual opportunity to indulge in a cheeky bag of candy floss...
