Remember, remember the fourth of November! That's when the Lions Club of Rutland will be hosting its annual Fireworks Display at Oakham Rugby Club, Rutland Showground.

Two fabulous displays from 1st Galaxy Fireworks will take place at 6.15pm and 7pm to mark the annual commemoration of Guy Fawkes.

Guy Fawkes Day, also called Bonfire Night, is celebrated on November 5 (and the closest weekend), commemorating the failure of the Gunpowder Plot of 1605.

The Rutland Lions host the county's most anticipated celebration of this annual event.

Since the mid-eighties the Lions Club of Rutland has been staging the event as a fundraiser for local good causes such as Rutland Foodbank, Men in Sheds and the Oakham Canal Green Corridor Project. It is the only formally organised firework event in Oakham.
