Everything about this event was…
Everything about this event was top-notch. The fireworks display was mesmerizing, and the music added an extra layer of magic. Food and drinks were plentiful, with options for all tastes. Traffic management could improve slightly, but it didn’t spoil the experience. A fantastic evening for families and friends alike.
Hands down
Hands down, the best fireworks display I’ve ever seen! Everything from the food vendors to the music and the stunning fireworks was well-planned. Highly recommend bringing chairs and blankets for the ultimate experience.

Abingdon Bonfire and Fireworks event was spectacular! The bonfire show was unique, and the fireworks were beautifully choreographed. It did take a while to leave, but that’s to be expected with such a large crowd. Amazing job by the team!
Loved every minute of the SummerFest
Loved every minute of the SummerFest. So much to do for all ages, and the fireworks display was breathtaking. A bit pricey for some food and rides, but the overall experience was worth every penny.

We had an unforgettable evening at the event. The bonfire created a cozy vibe, and the fireworks were a true spectacle. Food and drinks were reasonably priced, and the atmosphere was festive. Traffic delays were manageable. A perfect outing for families and friends. Can’t wait for the next one!
If you love fireworks
If you love fireworks, Xplosive Events is a must. The musical choreography of the display was on another level, and the staff were so friendly. Parking could use some improvement, but honestly, the event itself more than made up for it.

The event was seamless from start to finish. The fireworks display was spectacular, synchronized beautifully with the music. Food and drinks were abundant, and the atmosphere was lively. Traffic management could improve, but the experience was worth it. Definitely attending again next year. Highly recommend for families and friends alike!
First time at an Xplosive event
First time at an Xplosive event, and we were amazed! The fireworks were the best we’ve ever seen, and the bonfire was massive and mesmerizing. Loved the non-alcoholic hot drinks for designated drivers. Well-organized and family-friendly. We’ll definitely be back.

Xplosive Events never disappoints
Xplosive Events never disappoints! We attended SpringFest, and it was an absolute blast. The monster truck shows, live music, and great food options kept us entertained all day. Leaving took a while, but the fantastic memories made it worthwhile. Highly recommend!

Abingdon Bonfire and Fireworks 2024
What a lovely and exciting event, I would definitely recommend anyone goes it's group and family friendly, I will definitely be going again.
I went with some friends and we all found it pretty easy to get to and to get parking but we did come early as I knew the show ground access is from smaller roads so can cause delays if you come when everyone else is also trying to get in.
There was a Mega sized fun fair with endless fun for kiddos, there was a huge variety of food vendors ( my favourite TikkaTango).
There was also lovely drinks vendors with hot and cold drinks and they even had non alcoholic hot apple "cider" great for those of us who drive.
The show started with low sound fireworks (for kids) but this did not take from the beauty of the sparkly and colourful skylights.
The second part of the show was the Bonfire. How the bonfire was lit was a show in itself and then the sheer size of this bonfire was mind-blowing and mesmerising.
The main fireworks show was an amazing choreographed musical production. It was an enthralling display, that stimulated both visual and auditory senses. Beautiful, emotional and a lot of fun ( You know evocative shapes and colours a loads of vivid sounds dancing to the music) !!!!
Leaving took a bit of time (1h) but it's only logical if you think people for the show arrived between 3-7 but they nearly all wanted to leave once the show was over.
As I have been to a few different festivals and events I did come prepared with some snacks and good music.
There could maybe be some additional staff directing people out so that you don't get the people that cut in line.
Other tips:
You can bring camp chairs or pop tents and blankets and get yourself set up on a good spot to watch the show.
For the main display if you are noise sensitive (as one of my friends were) Loop earplugs definitely helps take the edge of the "loudness" and that way you get to enjoy the amazing display.

Abingdon Fireworks - Delays Delays Delays
Events at a military base ought to be organised with military precision - this one was a farce.
I do not deny that the fireworks were enjoyable, when they eventually happened, but the lead up was ridiculous. Why advertise 6pm quiet fireworks for children then tell families not to leave afterwards because the in-coming traffic would make that impossible? Why build the biggest bonfire then claim shock when it is too hot to allow the Monster Trucks to perform, so events would be delayed - who wants to see them anyway? We received multiple emails urging us to arrive at 3pm, to avoid the traffic, for a firework display that did not happen until 8:40pm - it was too late, we were bored, cold, fed up and ended up leaving before the end, because we knew that the ridiculous number of tickets sold meant we'd be stuck in the car park all night. Even then, no identifers on the rows and no lighting meant we struggled to locate our car. Then came the 12-lane departure queue of cars, for which you had to hold your nerve to inch forward. If you left a gap, someone created another lane - no marshalling at all.
We had already decided that the event was so badly run, we just wouldn't bother again, but this review was prompted by an offer of 50% off next year. No way, it was a chaotic entrapment, designed for maxmimum profit. We're not falling for that again!
A special shout out to the paramedics who, with shameful diregard for the bad example they were setting, were having great fun playing sword fights with very large and powerful sparklers!
Absolutely incredible experience that has given us memories for a lifetime!
We went to Abingdon fireworks run by Xplosive events and all I can say is this was the most incredible display I have ever been to! The whole event was amazing! The music, the DJ, the atmosphere, the fireworks made the experience just fantastic!
The whole event was really well organised, the delay getting in and out wasn’t the organisers fault, it was due to an accident on the A34 and people pushing to the front! I can’t even be mad at for the delay because the display was just unreal and we were buzzing still!!
Absolutely cannot wait to go again next year and many years to come!!
Thank you to everyone that made it so special! Loved loved loved it!!!

Amazing Night, cannot wait for next year
The fireworks were breathtaking and the whole evening was a blast! Hat’s off to the team for organising such a brilliant event. A little patience was needed when leaving but it was all worth it. We’re counting down to next year already- whatever they plan, it’s sure to be amazing!
Thanks so much again!!

Just the best fireworks I have ever seen, and the thing I like is you'll never go hungry at an Xplosive event, so many food vendors. My family had a wonderful time and we'll defiantly be looking out for more events by them.

Dreadful organisation.3hrs trying to exit car park absolute chaos!!
Dreadful organisation.. rubbish everywhere wine bottles to fall over ..very few bins ..toilets not enough of them.
The Chaos of the parking No marshals just a free for all with one road in and one out 3hours to exit car park for some we took over 2 hours.. it was like squeezing toothpaste out of a tube with at one point 14 separate queues trying to squeeze into two lanes. It was a free for all….once out of the car park there was no traffic on the road.
I will not go again for this reason
Two people in the queue had asked the only security person we saw where the emergency exit was as one need medical assistance. They were told there is no emergency exit !!!!!! Disgraceful
