Fireworks 2020 and Covid-19
Sevenoaks Round Table Firework 2020 Update
Sevenoaks Round Table have been watching the impact of Covid-19 closely to establish whether we feel our annual Charity Fireworks Event can take place this year. After much debate, we are saddened to have to confirm that the Charity Fireworks Event will not take place this year, for the first time in our long history.
We have not taken this decision lightly. Our overriding concern is the health and safety of all who support and attend our event, particularly given further Government restrictions now in force and the recent cancellation of the London New Year’s Eve Fireworks Event.
We also feel it would be wrong to commit funds we have raised through charitable activities on an event which is likely to need to be cancelled, potentially resulting in wasting the funds which have been generously donated.
Our hope is that we can plan for our best show ever in 2021 and we will be working on this between now and this time next year. We hope to see as many people as possible to, hopefully, celebrate the end of a very difficult period in history assuming Covid-19 is under control by this time.
We are also still planning on continuing our Santa Sleigh outings before Christmas - assuming the restrictions at the time will allow this and look forward to seeing you then.

Our aim is to provide fun for young and old and with a crowd of over 4,000 expected, we must be doing something right.
There will be attractions to keep the family happy including a range of food stalls, glow stick stalls and a music stage in the high street. |
