Pyromusical Firework Spectacular returns for fifth year
Saturday 4 November 2023
The North East's biggest Pyromusical fireworks spectacular, will mark its fifth year of shows with a celebration that will light up the night sky.
The magical, multi-sensory event, will include highlights from the last five decades of UK hit music with an original soundtrack including samples of tracks from musical powerhouses of today and yesteryear.
Set in a 7.5-acre stage and lighting up the night skies above Bishop Auckland, visitors can look forward to a heart-pounding performance that will illuminate the November night and create lasting memories for all who attend.
Anne-Isabelle Daulon, Founder and CEO, said: "Pyromusical is always such a popular and well-loved show, we are looking forward to celebrating its fifth birthday in our typically dazzling style.
"There is no better place to be than wrapped up with a cup of mulled wine or hot chocolate, watching the fireworks dancing into the night with our electrifying soundtrack."
Event Highlights
Synchronized Pyrotechnics and Music: Be prepared to be swept off your feet as the night sky comes alive with an intricate dance of lights, colours, and patterns, all impeccably synchronized to a masterful musical arrangement. The symphony of pyrotechnics and music will create an immersive experience like no other.
Cosy Autumnal Glow: With fire pits littered around the park and a great selection of soul-warming treats on sale, wrap up warm and share priceless moments with loved ones as the smell of mulled wine fill the air.
Family Moments: With the soundtrack covering the last 50 years, every member of the family is guaranteed to enjoy a singalong to some of their favourite tunes whilst watching a performance that lights up the faces of all in attendance.
