Then there will be a period in which you can leave the park or you can stay for the regular noise display. The cost is the same. Watch both shows on one ticket!

Supporting Local Charities
The Big Beach Bang is the premier fireworks event in the Southend area. Held annually in November at East Beach in Shoeburyness, our fireworks display attracts thousands of spectators for an evening of fun and entertainment.
All proceeds go to local charities in the area, so when you purchase a ticket, you’re not just gaining entry to a funfair and fireworks extravaganza—you’re actually helping your local community. We couldn’t run this event without the support of the community, the spectators, and the kind volunteers who give up their free time to help us put on this event every year.
If you are interested in volunteering at this years event please complete our volunteer form below to register your interest.
The event is organised on a voluntary basis by the members of Southend Round Table 106 and is one of our major fundraising events. It takes over ten months of hard work and planning to organise, and its success can be attributed to many years of experience dating back to our earliest displays at Southend United’s Roots Hall Football Ground in the 1970s.
If you want a fabulous, fun-filled family evening out that helps support the local community, then come to the Big Beach Bang Fireworks Spectacular.
We look forward to seeing you there!
