This year’s Cumberland Council Fireshow will take place in Bitts Park on Saturday 1 November.
In addition to a centre piece bonfire, more than 2,000 spectacular sparkling fireworks, set to music, will also light up the sky.
The theme for 2025 will celebrate Cumberland's maritime history and heritage.
The sparkling event will start at 6.30pm and will be the 36th Fireshow event to be held. It is the biggest event in the region expected to attract more than 35,000 spectators. This year’s event is organised in conjunction with Merlin Fireworks Ltd.
This year’s event programme will include a fairground funfair in Castle Car Park (formerly known as Devonshire Walk car park) during October half term.
Additionally, Taste Cumbria will be bringing its food and drink festival to the Cathedral grounds, in the heart of Carlisle, on Saturday 1 and Sunday 2 November. The event will include food and drink traders, live music on the festival stage, hot food stalls, children’s activities and face painting, street theatre and fire-themed entertainment. Stalls will be open between 10am and 5pm on the Saturday and between 11am and 4pm on the Sunday.
On the day of the Fireshow, there will be no fairground, but there will be food and family entertainment to those attending the Fireshow in Castle Car Park between 5pm and 8.30pm.
Admission to the Fireshow is free.
Carlisle Fireshow is a family event, and no alcohol will be permitted on site or within the Fireshow Village in Castle Car Park (formerly known as Devonshire Walk car park).
The overall events programme has been supported by the UK Government using UKSPF funding.
