UK Firework Display Map (2012 map being updated for 2013)

[MWHCVT]

I have started a Google map for member of TP to add locations of firework displays that they're aware of, please add any displays that you know of to the map (you need a google account to be able to do this)

Please only add locations/displays that will be accessible to the public

[canon_togger]

I've added Dunvegan castle fireworks on Isle of Skye.
If anyone is up here then it is worth a visit. I think its £6 entry, the lit up castle makes a great foreground for the display.

Hi Matt
Good idea for a post
I cant seem to add a pin to your map so have put a link below.
Dimore Field between Hardwicke and Quedgley in Gloucester - 10 November - they always put on a cracking display and a little fairground usually too
Plenty of vantage points to see the display for free as well (I just walk to the end of my road every year)
Centre of map between Dimore Brook and Woodlands Park.
