About
The Big Beach Bang has been Southend's premier annual fireworks event since the 1970s, returning to East Beach in Shoeburyness on Saturday 7th November 2026, 5pm–9pm. One ticket gets you two displays: a low-noise, SEND-friendly show at 6:30pm and a spectacular main display at 7:30pm. Alongside the fireworks there's a funfair, food and drink stalls, a DJ, and photo opportunities with Sammy the Shrimp. Organised by the volunteers of Southend-on-Sea Round Table Charitable Trust, every penny raised supports local charities across the area. Under-3s go free, so wrap up warm and join us for a fabulous, fun-filled family evening!
