Over 35,000 people are expected to attend this year’s Carlisle Fireshow.
The event, on Saturday November 4, is organised by Cumberland Council and will celebrate the area and its communities.
There will be centrepiece bonfire and more than 2,000 fireworks, set to music, will light up the sky.
It is the 34th fireshow to be held in Bitts Park and this year’s event is organised with Merlin Fireworks Ltd.
