Pyromusical 2026

A 25-minute Fireworks Spectacular!

 

The North East’s biggest Pyromusical returns on Saturday 31 October 2026, lighting up the night sky above Bishop Auckland with 25 minutes of spectacular fireworks choreographed to an epic soundtrack.

 

As this year’s event falls on Halloween, expect a few subtle seasonal touches to add to the atmosphere as darkness falls. With glowing fire pits, warming food and drink and a few surprises along the way, it promises to be a memorable autumn evening for the whole family.
