The Victorian Town, near Ironbridge, will open its doors on November 3 between 6pm and 9pm for its annual fireworks display.

Visitors will be able to watch fire breathing, fire eating and fire spinning, as well as getting the chance to explore the museum at night.

A dramatic display of iron casting will let people see molten iron into moulds.

Victorian characters will be available to chat to families about life in the late 1800s.

The highlight of the night will begin at 7.30pm when the first firework of the night will be lit.

The family friendly event has tickets priced at £11.50 for adults, £8 for children aged between three and 15 years, and £35 for a family of two adults and two children. Those under three enter at no cost.

Tickets will not be available on the gates, but can be booked in advance from ironbridge.org.uk
