Preston Grasshoppers Rugby Football Club Bonfire and Fireworks Display 5th November.
This is the largest and most popular bonfire night in the area and sells out every year. To avoid disappointment, online tickets are now available, so please purchase one to guarantee your place! Online Ticket Sales at Skiddle 2014 saw another sell-out spectacular at Preston Grasshoppers Bonfire Night and Fireworks Display. Hoppers General Manager Richard Ellis was delighted with the way the evening went, โIt is a major operation for the club to safely put on the annual fireworks display and bonfire night. We had around 80 staff and volunteers who all worked extremely hard to make the evening enjoyable for the public and I would like to thank them all for their time and effort.โ The evening once again sold out with just over 4000 people attending. โWe pre-sold 3300 tickets prior to the event, unfortunately we had to turn some people away once the capacity of the ground was reached. If you buy a ticket in advance it guarantees entry to the event.โ Food and Bar will be available on the night.

Come in Weโre Open for Bananas and Much More! Our market is still open and will remain open
A
campaign has been launched to promote Preston Markets during the run up to the redevelopment of the new market hall and throughout the building works. The main campaign message is that Preston Markets is open for business and will remain so throughout the redevelopment process. The current market hall will not close until the new Indoor Market is built, and open and every effort will be made to minimise disruption to the Outdoor Market and Car Boot and Flea Market during that time. The campaign includes radio sponsorship, bus adverts with Preston Bus, new signage around the market and an ongoing digital campaign. The market team has also been out and about welcoming new and returning students from UCLan. The first stage in the restoration of Prestonโs historic Fish Market canopy was completed recently, with specialist investigation into the 90 year old structure. Full refurbishment of the smaller covered market will commence in the New Year and forms the first stage of the markets redevelopment.
14
Welcoming the campaign Councillor Peter Rankin, Leader of Preston City Council said: โWe want to ensure that all market customers are aware that our fantastic market is open and will be staying open throughout the process. It is important that everyone continues to support Preston Markets throughout this period of change and joins us and market traders at the new Market Hall once complete. Hopefully the campaign will also encourage new customers to the market as well.โ
