Fawkes Festival: Royal Highland Centre
Get ready to be blown away when Scotland’s fabulous fireworks extravaganza Fawkes Festival comes to the Royal Highland Centre this autumn!
About Fawkes Festival: Royal Highland Centre
A unique way to experience the fun of Guy Fawkes Night, this immersive event is an explosion of colour, light and sound, combining a choreographed fireworks display and entertainment including the world-famous Scottish bagpipe band, the Red Hot Chilli Pipers and the sensational street theatre troupe Spark! who magically transform the landscape with mysterious characters.
The Fawkes Festival Family Fireworks Spectacular promises a feelgood programme of entertainment that will set the feet tapping and the heavens ablaze – from fairground rides to wonderful food and drink, a roaring bonfire and, of course, the magnificent fireworks display, befitting the foiling of the gunpowder plot and set to music along with lights, sky trackers and lasers. It’s a feast for the senses and there’s something for all the family at this distinctly Scottish event.
Early Birds start from £14.00 Adult, £8.00 Child. Rising to £16.00 Adult and £9.00 Child thereafter. Box office prices and walk ins on the day are £18.00 Adult and £10.00 Child. All Children Under 3 Years go free - still require a ticket - and Carers go Free (subject to submitting documentation) and all subject to availability
