Fireworks 2020

Fireworks and night run
Saturday 31st October 2020

2020 has been a very difficult year for both the Centre, our supporters and the Country as a whole.  Through the whole pandemic we have taken the safety of our supporters and team very seriously and we have adapted the Centre to ensure it is COVID Secure. 

Sadly we have had to take the decision to cancel the Fireworks event.  The Fireworks event attracts a large crowd which combined with the lower lighting at the Centre in the evening makes it very difficult for us to ensure and facilitate social distancing.  It is the responsibility of all of us to restrict the spread of the virus and it is important that we continue to operate the Centre in the safest possible way.

The decision to cancel the fireworks has been difficult for our team but the rising cases of Coronavirus over the last few weeks has concentrated our minds to make the right decision for our customers.

We appreciate that many of you who have tickets for the event have already experienced two previous postponements and we would like to thank you for sticking with us for the last 12 months.

We are currently awaiting confirmation from our district council over whether we can hold a smaller event.  Our hope is to be able to hold a night taxy run event for a reduced audience.  The reduced attendance would allow social distancing on site and create a safe environment for our visitors.

We would like to offer our current ticket holders the choice to attend the day and night taxy run event with Avro Lancaster NX611 and DH Mosquito HJ711 for the first time the aircraft will have operated together at night and the first night time runs for two years (limited numbers allowed), OR return your tickets for a refund OR donate the value of your ticket to us to help us through this very difficult period, we will not be offering the option to use the ticket at an event next year.

If you would like to attend the smaller event then please get in touch by emailing us on enquiries@lincsaviation.co.uk and quoting your name with your online order number.  Sadly due to the restrictions there would be a limited number allowed on site so it would be important to contact us as soon as possible to ensure you were granted admission.

If you would like to donate the value of your ticket then please let us know by phone or email.

If you would like a refund on your ticket please post your ticket back to us along with your online order number or contact details if paid by card over the ‘phone.

We would be extremely grateful to anyone who decided to donate the value of their ticket to help the Centre through the difficult winter period to come.

Thank you for your support and understanding. « Back to Latest News
