Fireworks set to sparkle at new location

Aberdeen’s fireworks display is set to return to the skies on Tuesday 5 November. 
This year the fireworks will be launched from the end of Port of Aberdeen’s North Pier due to ongoing development work at the beach.
People can watch the spectacular display from the southern end of the Esplanade. The display will begin at 7:30 PM and will last twenty minutes.
Aberdeen City Council Co-Leader Councillor Ian Yuill said: “Aberdeen’s fireworks display is hugely popular with families and people of all ages. 
“The Council would like to thank the Port of Aberdeen for allowing the North Pier to be used to continue this fantastic event, whilst the Beach Masterplan works are taking place.”
Aberdeen City Council Co-Leader Councillor Christian Allard said: “It is fantastic to see the return of the fireworks . We are looking forward to another magnificent turnout this November.”
Works for a new beach park as part of the City Centre and Beach Masterplan have started with construction for an events park and enhancement of Broadhill. The new works are designed to renew the beachfront to maximise the potential of this unique space and create an exceptional asset for the city. 
Bob Sanguinetti, CEO, Port of Aberdeen, said: “The fireworks are a highlight of the city’s events calendar and we’re delighted to support the display this year.”
There will be no parking around the site. Park and Ride facilities will be available from Bridge of Don, Kingswells and Altens. More details will be announced in due course.
