The display sold as Uxbridge fireworks happens at Byron Park in Harrow, seven miles away, on Saturday 7 November. Tickets are live now from £12.95 plus a fee.
Search for Uxbridge fireworks and you land on uxbridgefireworks.co.uk, a site headed “Uxbridge and Harrow Fireworks Display, Saturday 7th November 2026”. Read past the headline and the venue is Byron Park, Peel Road, Harrow, HA3 7QX. (Uxbridge and Harrow Fireworks)
That is in Wealdstone, in the London Borough of Harrow. It is about seven miles from Uxbridge town centre in a straight line, and further by road. There is no bonfire night display inside Hillingdon that we could find published anywhere for 2026, and the council runs none: its only fireworks pages are the noise rules and the explosives licence.
One display, at least four websites
uxbridgefireworks.co.uk, hillingdonfireworks.co.uk and ruislipfireworks.co.uk all sell the same event, on the same date, at the same Harrow park, in near-identical words. So does harrowfireworks.co.uk, which is the one that names itself after the borough the park is actually in. (Harrow Fireworks, Hillingdon and Harrow Fireworks, Ruislip and Harrow Fireworks)
The evidence that these are one operation rather than several:
- All four are one WordPress multisite. Their image files sit under
/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/,/sites/8/and/sites/11/on the three town-named domains. - Every one of them carries the footer “Copyright © 2026 Harrow Fireworks” and gives the venue as Byron Park, Harrow.
- The contact address on ruislipfireworks.co.uk is
info@fireworkstemplate.co.uk. The other sites useinfo@harrowfireworks.co.uk. - The Uxbridge page has a line left in from another town: “Our forthcoming Wembley and Harrow Fireworks display and Festival is going to be our largest event to date.”
- hillingdonfireworks.co.uk hosts a Barnet fireworks page at
/barent-fireworks/, misspelling and all.
None of that makes the display worse. It is a real, long-running event, described on the Uxbridge site as “EST 2012” and on the Ruislip site as “celebrating its annual fireworks display 15 years”. It does mean that if you are in Uxbridge, Ruislip or Hayes, you are travelling to Harrow.
Saturday 7 November 2026: times and tickets
| Date | Saturday 7 November 2026 |
| Venue | Byron Park, Peel Road, Harrow, HA3 7QX |
| Gates | 12pm, and free to enter until 3pm |
| Pre-show | approximately 7.30pm |
| Fireworks | approximately 7.45pm, described as a 20-minute musical display |
| Event closes | 8.30pm on the organiser’s own pages |
The two sources disagree on the closing time. The organiser’s own pages say 8.30pm. The live Ticket Tailor listing, which is the thing actually selling 2026 tickets, is headed “Sat 7 Nov 2026 12:00 PM - 11:00 PM GMT”. Plan for the fireworks at about 7.45pm and do not assume the site stays open to 11pm.
Tickets are on sale now through Ticket Tailor. These are the first-release prices, each shown as the total with the face value and the booking fee split out. (Ticket Tailor: Hillingdon & Harrow Fireworks Display)
| Ticket | Total | Face value | Fee |
|---|---|---|---|
| Adult, 16 and above | £14.45 | £12.95 | £1.50 |
| Child, 3 to 15 (under 3s free) | £9.45 | £7.95 | £1.50 |
| Student, 16 to 18 with ID | £10.45 | £8.95 | £1.50 |
| Group of two, any age | £21.45 | £19.95 | £1.50 |
| Group of three | £31.95 | £29.95 | £2.00 |

| Group of six | £63.95 | £59.95 | £4.00 |
| VIP pack, single | £44.95 | £39.95 | £5.00 |
The VIP pack buys queue jump at the main gates, one ride token, one meal token, front row viewing and a glow toy.
The organiser’s own site contradicts itself
The homepage says to buy online and save up to 40% off the door price. The site’s own ticket page says the opposite:
“TICKETS NOW ONLY AVAILABLE AT THE GATE (we will not sell out). CASH ONLY AT THE GATE. No cards are taken! … TICKETS PRICE @ THE GATE £15 ADULTS £10 KIDS. UNDER 3’S GO FREE.”
That page is headed “Saturday 8th November 2025”. It is last year’s page, still live. Two other sub-pages are staler still: “Where to Park” is headed “Saturday 9th November 2024”, and “What’s On” is headed “Saturday 8th November 2025” and refers to “the 2021 fireworks festival”. (Buy tickets, Where to park, What’s on)
A third contradiction is about payment. The Ticket Tailor checkout takes card and PayPal and is selling 2026 tickets now. The organiser’s directions page says the opposite in capitals: “THIS IS A CASH ONLY EVENT, CARDS WILL NOT BE ACCEPTED.” That page is itself headed “Saturday 8TH November 2025”, so it is last year’s again, but take cash anyway: the food, bar and funfair stalls are a separate matter from the gate. (Directions to Byron Park)
The live Ticket Tailor page, which is dated 7 November 2026 and is taking orders today, is the one to trust on this year’s prices.
Read the terms before you buy
The conditions on the checkout page are unusually strict, and two of them catch people out:
- All tickets are non-refundable for any reason. If the event is cancelled, the organiser says a new date will be issued and tickets reassigned, not refunded.
- Printed paper e-tickets only. In the organiser’s words: “All internet ticket holders must bring their PRINTED E-TICKETS ON PAPER, NO PHONES, Tabs or pads Accepted.”
- Ticket holders are advised to be at the gate by 6.30pm.
- E-tickets go to the email address on the PayPal or card payment, and a typo has to be sorted out at the gate.
Getting there, and the parking warning
The organiser tells visitors to use public transport and warns that “there will be no on-street parking on the roads around the park for non-residents”, and that the Byron Park car park “will be full and close from 4pm”.
From Uxbridge the tube route is the Metropolitan line, which serves both Uxbridge and Harrow-on-the-Hill on its regular route. (TfL line route sequence) The organiser’s own directions are written from Harrow rather than from us: it says Harrow and Wealdstone station is a six-minute walk, buses stopping in Wealdstone are a four-minute walk, and the 140, 186, 340 and 182 run from Harrow town centre. Its listed car parks are all in Harrow: the Civic Centre (free on Saturdays, eight-minute walk), St George’s Shopping Centre, Queens House and the station car park.
If you are driving from Uxbridge, our parking in Uxbridge page covers the local car parks, and the roadworks and travel page tracks closures on the routes out of town.
What is on in Hillingdon instead
There is no council display. The nearest thing to a public fireworks show inside Uxbridge is the one at the town centre Christmas lights switch-on, which the Uxbridge BID has run with a fireworks display at 5pm in each of the last several years. The 2026 date has not been announced yet: see our Uxbridge Christmas lights page.
The fireworks rules in Hillingdon
Hillingdon Council sets out the curfew on its noise nuisance pages. Fireworks may not be used after 11pm and until 7am, with these extensions:
- until midnight on 5 November
- until 1am on the night of Diwali
- until 1am on New Year’s Eve
- until 1am on the night of Chinese New Year
The restrictions are enforced by the police, though the council says it “may intervene if a statutory noise nuisance is being created”, and it takes reports through an online form. (Fireworks, Hillingdon Council)
What is still unconfirmed
- Whether the gate price for 2026 will match last year’s £15 adult and £10 child. The organiser has not published a 2026 gate price.
- Whether later ticket releases will cost more than the first release listed above.
- Whether any community group inside Hillingdon is planning a display. Nothing was published as of 3 September 2026. This page will be updated if one appears.
Details verified on 3 September 2026 against the organisers’ own pages and the live Ticket Tailor checkout. Prices and times can change: check the organiser before you travel.
