Celton Manx sponsors fireworks again

Local company set to make a big noise again in November

For the fifth successive year Celton Manx is to sponsor Douglas Borough Council’s public fireworks display.

The event will be held on Friday November 6th, starting at 7.30pm when the Mayor of Douglas, Councillor Sara Hackman will lead the judging for the Best Guy competition.

At 8pm the fireworks display, set to music, will be fired from a barge moored close by the Douglas war memorial. 

Regeneration and community committee chairman Councillor John Skinner said: ‘Thanks to generous sponsorship from Celton Manx, the hard work of many Council staff and Manx Radio as our media partner the Douglas fireworks display promises, yet again, to be a hugely popular, crowd-pulling event. 

The former promenade cycle way will be closed between the northernmost end of the Marine Gardens on Harris Promenade and a point opposite Castlemona Avenue from 4 to 9pm on Friday November 6th.

Additionally parking will be suspended from 3 until 9pm on Harris Promenade east side where traffic will be restricted to a single lane (southbound) between Broadway and a point opposite the northernmost end of the Marine Gardens from 6 to 8pm.
