Ring of Fire

Bath and North East Somerset Council held their “Ring of Fire” event tonight. This saw £80’000’s of fireworks being set off from 6 locations around the hills of Bath in 3 minutes.

The evening went well and was quite impressive. 3 minutes doesn’t sound a lot but when there’s 6 lots of fireworks going off all around you, it’s quite something.

The event was to celebrate the success the Bath Spa has enjoyed since its opening a couple of months ago and to launch Heritage Open Week.

A single firework was fired from the roof of the Bath Spa to launch the event. This was quite a disappointing firework though, I thought it was someone having a laugh and launching their own! But once the main event started you didn’t know which direction to look, there were fireworks everywhere.
