MILFORD WATERFRONT is excited to welcome back the Milford Haven Round Table’s iconic free Fireworks Extravaganza to Mackerel Quay this November 5th.

The Fireworks Extravaganza brings thousands to Milford Haven to enjoy the firework display, live music, the fun fair, food stalls and the local businesses. This year it is taking place from 5-8:30pm, with the fireworks display scheduled for 8pm.

Natalie Hunt, Events and Activities Co-Ordinator for Milford Waterfront said: “Every year we look forward to working with the Round Table for Fireworks Night. It is a landmark date on our calendar that draws in people from all over Pembrokeshire to enjoy the amazing waterway backdrop to the fireworks! This winter is hard for everyone, and this event is no different. We are very proud to be supporting this year’s event to help make it an enjoyable night for everyone.”

Richard Johnson, Chair of the Milford Haven Round Table added: “We are so proud to bring you the Fireworks Extravaganza again in 2022. One of our main events in the calendar, it is West Wales’ biggest FREE firework display, and we hope that people come far and wide to see our town buzzing with the atmosphere of bonfire night. This event wouldn’t be possible without the support of the townspeople, local businesses, and our amazing sponsors: Milford Waterfront, Ascona Group, Milford Haven Town Council and Williams Shipping so a big thank you to them! See you on Saturday for a great night.”
