Community events raising money for local charities

Glossop & District Round Table 916 organise two large community events each year to raise money for local charities and good causes.

Annual Event

Glossop Bonfire and Fireworks Spectacular

The event we are probably most renowned for is the Glossop Bonfire and Fireworks Spectacular. We first brought the event to Glossop over 50 years ago. We have held the Bonfire and Fireworks display in Manor Park, Glossop, every year apart from in 2020 which was cancelled due to covid restrictions.

It has evolved significantly since we first held the event. It now includes a Children's and Adults Fireworks Display, the Bonfire, Fair Ground rides, a DJ, local Food vendors, performances from local groups, our charity bar and so much more.

If you would like to get involved with Round Table or help marshal the event please email volunteers@glossoproundtable.org or find us on Facebook.

Bi-Annual Event

Glossop Heritage Weekend

In May 2020, after polling the local community, we were hoping to bring back the much anticipated Victorian Weekend, which was last put on by Gala back in May 2008. Covid 19 however had other plans for us.

We regrouped and formed a new committee and set the date for May 2022. As it hadn't been put on for 14 years we were a little sceptical of whether or not people would turn out however, our concerns were misplaced, the weekend last year was a huge success! Over the weekend we had heritage fair ground rides, a stage with heritage live acts, several steam engines, Morris dancing, a beer festival, local food vendors, market stalls and a parade. 1000s of people turned out for the entire weekend.

Due to the overwhelming preparation and planning of the Heritage Weekend, we have decided that this would be a bi-annual event running in May 29th-31st 2026, 2028 and so on.

Further details can be found at Glossop Heritage Weekend.

Bi-Annual Event

GlossFest – Music in the Heart of Glossop

In October 2024 we met with Glossop Creative Trust to form a committee for a music festival in the heart of Glossop, Norfolk Square. Along with local bands performing on stage, we incorporated local businesses, food vendors, pubs and bars along with our legendary Charity Beer Festival.

The turnout was excellent and the weekend was exceptionally successful. This is a bi-annual event running in 2025, 2027 and so on.
