Councillor Pamela Hargreaves said: "Our free Fireworks Spectacular is one of the best-loved events in the Hartlepool calendar and we continue to deliver it each year because it brings so much pleasure to residents of all ages at a time when so many are facing cost-of-living challenges.

“It’s a celebration of Guy Fawkes’ Night but more than that it’s a celebration of Hartlepool and the spirit of its people – all of us together in one great community.

“It’s set to be another fantastic event and we’re delighted once again to have the support of X-energy as our headline sponsor.”

Details of parking and any road closures will be announced soon.
