Falmouth’s Bonfire Night display is scheduled for 7pm on Thursday 5 November 2026. The fireworks will launch from Pendennis Castle, with views from the seafront and parts of town. Falmouth Town Council is arranging the display with support from the Town Mayor and Falmouth Fire Station.
This is a one-off November event for 2026, arranged after the August Falmouth Week display was cancelled. It should not be treated as confirmation of a new annual November schedule. Pendennis Castle is the launch site; the announcement does not invite spectators to enter the castle to watch.
Choosing where to watch
The council has yet to publish its detailed viewing advice, parking arrangements and road closures. Wait for that guidance before choosing a specific spot or relying on a usual parking place. The broader Falmouth guide can help with the rest of a town visit, but event-night access arrangements may differ.
For a November evening, bring a warm layer and allow time to reach the viewing area before the 7pm start. Decide on your return journey as well as your outward route, especially if you are travelling by public transport. Avoid making dinner or onward travel plans that depend on an unannounced display finish time.
Making an evening of it
Browse Falmouth accommodation if you want to stay overnight. Check the council’s final notice before travelling for the display, including any weather-related changes and the confirmed spectator arrangements.
