Elmbridge fireworks 2026: four displays, 1 to 7 November

Four big fireworks displays in and around Elmbridge have 2026 dates and tickets on sale. None is on Bonfire Night itself, which falls on Thursday 5 November 2026.

Colets in Thames Ditton and Hampton Court House are both Sunday 1 November. Esher Rugby, which is actually in Hersham, is Friday 6 November. Apps Court Farm in Walton is Saturday 7 November. Sandown Park, the borough’s biggest display in recent years, has still announced nothing.

Updated 3 October: Apps Court Farm and Hampton Court House added; Sandown Park re-checked and still silent; Colets and Esher Rugby prices unchanged.

Colets, Thames Ditton: Sunday 1 November

Colets Health & Fitness runs the event at St Nicholas Road, Thames Ditton KT7 0PW, billed for 2026 as the Colets Halloween Fireworks Spooktacular.

• Gates open 4pm. The listing runs to 9pm.
• A “Spooky Hour” from 4pm to 5pm gives 30% off fairground rides, giant inflatables and drinks bought from Colets.
• Fireworks in the early evening. Colets’ own event page says the display is at 18:30. The Eventbrite listing describes a family light show at 6.30pm with the main display following at about 6.40pm. Either way it is an early finish by fireworks-night standards, so arrive before six.
• Funfair rides, a live DJ, street food vendors and glow merchandise.

Advance tickets only, and Colets says last year’s event sold out. Prices are £15 an adult, £10 a junior and £40 for a family ticket, with Eventbrite fees of £1.96, £1.55 and £4.04 respectively on top. The refund policy is a flat “no refunds”.

Esher Rugby, Hersham: Friday 6 November

Despite the name, the club is on Molesey Road in Hersham, not in Esher. The 2026 listing is Esher Rugby’s 2026 Fireworks Night at Esher Rugby Football Club, 369 Molesey Road, Walton-on-Thames KT12 3PF.

• Gates open 5pm, the display starts at 8pm, according to the club’s own answers on the booking page. The event itself is listed to 11.30pm, so the fireworks are the middle of the evening rather than the end of it.
• Funfair attractions, street food vendors and live entertainment.

Two price bands are running. Early bird is £11 an adult, £6 a child and £29 for a family of four; the standard bands are £12, £7 and £35. Booking fees of between 56p and £3.28 apply per ticket type. Again, no refunds.

Parking is the thing to plan. The club states there is no on-site parking and points people at Hersham station car park, which it puts at under a five minute walk. Hersham station is also the obvious train option. Elmbridge’s own car parks and their evening rules are on our parking in Elmbridge page.

Hampton Court House: Sunday 1 November

Hampton Court House, the independent school on Hampton Court Road, East Molesey KT8 9BS, is just over the river from the palace and outside the borough. Its Fireworks Spectacular returns after selling out last year.

• Gates open 6pm, fireworks at 7.30pm, with food trucks and a bar. The listing runs to 8.30pm.
• £15 an adult and £10 a child under 16, with fees taking them to £16.55 and £11.22. Under-fives are free. The £12 early bird tickets have sold out.
• No refunds, and the school asks people not to bring their own sparklers.

Apps Court Farm, Walton: Saturday 7 November

Apps Court Farm on Hurst Road, Walton-on-Thames KT12 2EG, bills its Apps Court Fireworks Festival as Surrey’s largest. For 2026 it promises a bigger choreographed display than last year, firepits and marshmallows, and a new free Kids Area for one to five year olds, run in 30-minute sessions.

• Gates open at 3pm and the event closes at 10pm, according to the farm’s own FAQ. Irvin Leisure, which runs the funfair, gives the running order as entertainment from 5pm, fire dancers from 6.40pm and fireworks from 8pm.
• Parking is on site but must be booked in advance as an add-on to your ticket; use Gate 1. Pedestrians use Gate 2. Taxis may not drop off on the Hurst Road clearway.
• The farm says Hampton Court, Walton-on-Thames and Hersham stations are all about a 45 minute walk away.
• No outside food or drink, no alcohol, no dogs except assistance dogs, and no refunds.

The farm’s booking page did not show ticket prices to us; it says early bird tickets are on sale.

Sandown Park: nothing announced, and that is unusual for September

Sandown Park in Esher ran a Fireworks Spooktacular on Thursday 30 October 2025: gates at 6pm, display at 7.30pm, a costume competition between 6pm and 7pm, funfair and disco, closing at 8pm, with advance tickets at £10 an adult and £6 for under-16s and free parking in the Portsmouth Road car park.

As at 3 October 2026, the racecourse’s fireworks page still carries that 2025 date and nothing else, and its What’s On listing for 2026 contains no fireworks event of any kind. The listing does carry racing fixtures through to July 2027 and a Christmas event in December, so the page is being maintained. Read that as undecided rather than cancelled, but do not plan around it until the racecourse says so.

The school and club displays: no 2026 dates yet

Elmbridge normally has a scattering of PTA and sports club displays across the last week of October and the first week of November. The local roundup that still comes top of a search for them names Cleves School in Weybridge, Burhill in Hersham, Ashley in Walton, Cobham Avorians and Chandlers Field in West Molesey. That page is a 2019 listing. Its dates are seven years old and should not be used.

None of those organisers has published a 2026 date on its own site, and none appears in the Eventbrite listings for Walton-on-Thames, Weybridge or Esher. They were still not listed on 3 October. We will update this page if they land.

Further afield and already on sale: Meath School in Ottershaw on Sunday 8 November, about six miles from Weybridge.

What it means for you

• Four confirmed dates: Colets, Thames Ditton, and Hampton Court House, both Sunday 1 November; Esher Rugby, Hersham, Friday 6 November; Apps Court Farm, Walton, Saturday 7 November.
• The earliest finish is Colets (fireworks at 6.30pm), which suits young children; Apps Court and Esher Rugby fire at 8pm.
• All four are advance-ticket only and say no refunds, so check the forecast before you buy rather than after.
• Esher Rugby has no car park. Hersham station car park is the fallback and it is a short walk.
• Sandown Park is the one to watch: if it runs, it will be the last week of October.
• Roadworks can bite on the Molesey Road and A3 approaches on a Friday evening. Check our roadworks and travel page before you set off.
