So it promises to be another action-packed weekend in the Worksop, Retford, Mansfield, Ashfield and wider Nottinghamshire area. And we have come up with our usual guide to things to do and places to go over the next few days.
Fireworks displays and bonfires dominate the agenda. From Worksop Rugby Club and Manton Sports Club to Mansfield Town Football Club and the Summit Centre at Kirkby, spectacular displays have been organised. There is even a Guy Fawkes workshop for families.
Fireworks of a different kind will be going off at the region's theatres, where a host of shows have been lined up. Milestones are the order of the day at Worksop’s Acorn Theatre, where Worksop Light Operatic Society celebrates its 50th anniversary, and also at Retford’s Majestic Theatre, where the 30th birthday of The Mob, the youth section of the town’s musical theatre company, is celebrated.
Children’s productions, including ‘Cinderella The Musical’, mark half-term at Mansfield’s Palace, where there is also a tribute show to George Michael and a return for The Comedy Store.
Throw in an art exhibition, a craft fair, pottery classes and the final days of the Refresh installations and the Secret Santa Appeal in Mansfield, and it’s clear there’s something for everyone.
Before you set off, please check the individual website of your chosen destination for admission prices and opening times. Have a great weekend!
