2011 Charity Bonfire Information – Saturday 5th Nov

Harrogate Round Table are back again for their 40th successive year as organisers of the 2011 Charity Bonfire.

Being one of the few remaining bonfire events where an entry fee is not charged, Harrogate Round Table are reliant on the generosity of the public on the evening to donate as much as they can afford to this years supported charity which is Yorkshire Cancer Research.

This years’ community service chairman Paul Horner said:

“Wh around 11,000 people expected, this is by far the biggest single public gathering of the year in Harrogate. No Round Table volunteers get paid for any of the hard work that goes into planning this event, so the public can be assured that all the money they donate is going to a very worthy cause. Without those donations, this event would sadly disappear.

Celebrating our 40th anniversary of organising this event, we always try to ensure a great warm family feel where everyone can watch the display in safety. You sense a real community spirit and it’s great to see so many families enjoying the event”

This year the event timings are:

• Saturday 5th November
• 6.00pm – Stray FM buildup
• 6.30pm – Bonfire lit
• 7.15pm – Fireworks

Directions & Parking.
The bonfire is held on the grassy area known as the Stray directly to the south of the Empress pub which is HG1 4SP. The area can be viewed by typing the postcode into Google maps. There is limited parking in the immediate vicinity and this year we also have major road works on Oatlands Drive and York Place so the area is likely to be highly congested.

If you want to avoid being sat in lengthy queues, we strongly recommend leaving your vehicle in the town center (free parking after 6pm) and walking from there which is only around 15 mins, or take public transport where possible. Why not make an evening of it by having a bite to eat in one of the many local award winning restaurants?

PARKING ON THE GRASS AREAS OF THE STRAY IS STRICTLY PROHIBITED.
