Blackheath Fireworks returns on 7 November with a new People's Stage showcasing local talent.

Blackheath Fireworks is returning on Saturday 7 November from 5pm to 10pm with a brand-new People's Stage showcasing local talent. The event will feature live music, comedy, fairground rides and the annual fireworks display. The council has worked with organisations Rezon 8 and Alchemy, which support emerging artists and young creatives in the borough, to create the event's programme. Two hundred and fifty free tickets will be available for Lewisham residents.

The Big Top will feature performances from UK Garage stars DJ Luck & MC Neat and club legend Brandon Block. Massaoke will make a return alongside the Lords of Lightning, while the Big Belly Comedy Club will host comedians throughout the evening. The fairground will offer attractions for all ages, from family-friendly to thrill rides. Street food will also be available.

Councillor Rotimi Skyers said the People's Stage gives the chance to 'showcase the incredible creative talent we have in Lewisham' and is a way to 'build momentum ahead of the return of People's Day next summer'. The People's Stage will serve as a precursor to the People's Day festival, set to return next summer. The full line-up for the event will be announced in the coming weeks.
