Horsham district's six fireworks nights ran from 5 to 8 November 2026, and the Sports Club's display was called off. No organiser has set a 2027 date yet.

Horsham district’s fireworks season for 2026 is over. Six displays ran between Thursday 5 and Sunday 8 November, ending with the free display at The Coot. Horsham Sports Club’s big night on 24 October was called off for the weather and has not been rearranged. No organiser had published a 2027 date when we checked on 10 November.

Updated 10 November: every display has now passed, so this page now records what ran in 2026 and what we know about 2027. None of the organisers’ pages we checked today reports a cancellation after the event list was last confirmed on 3 November.

The sell-outs are as the organisers reported them. Leonardslee said on 1 November that general admission for Friday 6 November had sold out, along with the VIP dinner on the 5th (Leonardslee Wine Estate). The Holbrook Club’s early bird tickets had gone by mid-October (The Holbrook Club).

Horsham Sports Club: cancelled, and no new date

The club’s committee called off its Saturday 24 October display four days ahead. It cited severe weather warnings for high winds and heavy rain, after talking to its event partners and the authorities (Horsham Sports Club). Its event page still carries the cancellation notice, and the club has not announced a replacement night.

If you still have not had your money back:

  • Bought on Eventbrite: the club said refunds would be processed automatically.
  • Bought at the club office: take your printed tickets to the office, Monday to Friday, 9am to 5pm. The office number is 01403 254628.

Fireworks in 2027: what we know

Nothing has been announced yet. Here is the pattern from this year, so you know when to start looking:

  • Bonfire night 2027 falls on a Friday, 5 November, so the main weekend is likely to be Friday 5 to Sunday 7 November. That is our reading of the calendar, not an organiser’s date.
  • Leonardslee put its 2026 tickets on sale with an early bird price that ended on 31 August, and the Friday night sold out a week ahead.
  • Horsham Rugby Club’s early bird price ended on 7 October.
  • The Holbrook Club’s early bird tickets were gone by mid-October.

We will add 2027 dates here as each organiser publishes them.
