Remember, remember the 5th of November, and this year Hampshire has more places than ever to watch the sky light up. From torch lit village processions to big organised displays with live music and street food, here's where to catch a firework display or bonfire night event across the county in 2026.
A good few of these are ticketed, so it's worth booking ahead if you don't want to miss out.
Join the annual Winchester torch procession, winding through the High Street before the bonfire is lit and the fireworks begin over the city.
Southampton has plenty to choose from this year. Wrap up warm for the family firework display at Mayflower Park on Saturday 7th November, or head to the Utilita Bowl Fireworks Party on Friday 6th November for a big organised show.
Townhill Park House at The Gregg School in Swaythling is holding a midweek Fireworks Night on Wednesday 4th November from 5.30pm to 7pm. Set across 23 acres of historic parkland, it makes a dramatic and spacious backdrop for a professional display, with plenty of room for families to spread out. Ticket details are still to be announced, so keep an eye on their website nearer the time.
Totton usually holds its own display a little later in the month too (2026 date TBC).
Ampfield Golf & Country Club, near Romsey is holding its Fireworks Night on Friday 6th November. The outdoor kitchen and bar open at 5pm, with fireworks lighting up the course at 7.30pm. Tickets are £12 for adults and £6 for children, with a family ticket at £30, available from the clubhouse. Parking is limited, so car sharing is encouraged if you can manage it.
Within Andover, the main display is held at Andover Golf Club (2026 date TBC), and Rookwood School usually puts on a show too.
Thruxton Race Circuit is throwing Glitter n Glow, a full evening festival with fireworks, live music, glowing entertainment and a funfair, on Saturday 7th November from 6pm. The wide open circuit makes a brilliant backdrop for a big display, with plenty of space for families to spread out comfortably. It's for a good cause too, with profits supporting local charities including Koala. Ticket prices are yet to be announced.
For an evening of spooky fun and fireworks, head to Funland on Hayling Island. Enjoy the fair after dark and dress up as your favourite Halloween character for the chance to win prizes.
Southsea Common plays host to Portsmouth's firework display, with live music, food and drink alongside the display itself. Head to Gosport during October half term for a funfair, bonfire and fireworks at HMS Sultan's Bonfire and Fireworks Night (2026 date TBC).
There are several spots in and around the New Forest holding displays in 2026, including Totton (date TBC) and Fawley. Ringwood's display at Carvers Recreation Ground remains the town's big night out, with a bonfire and live music alongside the fireworks.
Some of the best bonfire nights in Hampshire happen in the villages, where the whole community turns out.
In Beech, near Alton, the torch lit procession sets off from the village hall at 5.30pm on Saturday 7th November, heading up to the recreation ground for a bonfire and a 15 to 20 minute fireworks display, with burgers and mulled wine to keep you warm.
Just down the road, Bentley's Village Bonfire and Fireworks Night at Carters Meadow opens its gates at 6pm the same evening, with a barbecue, bar and live music before the display begins at 6.30pm.
Over towards Basingstoke, Preston Candover Village Hall holds its own bonfire night from 5.30pm to 7.30pm on the 7th, a proper neighbours and family affair with a barbecue and bar, on land kindly loaned by Lady Sainsbury.
And in the Meon Valley, The Dell at East Meon has confirmed its bonfire and fireworks are returning for 2026, with full details expected soon, so keep an eye on their social media nearer the date.
From a big organised display with a funfair to a torch lit walk through a village lane, Hampshire has bonfire night covered this November. Some events are ticketed, so it's worth booking early where you can.
