A longstanding tradition in Sussex, Newick Bonfire Society hosts an annual torchlit procession, bonfire, and fireworks, bringing the village community together.
Each year, Newick Bonfire Society organises a spectacular bonfire night, starting with a torchlit procession through the village, followed by a grand bonfire and fireworks display. The society is rooted in the tradition of Sussex bonfires, celebrating both historical ties to the Gunpowder Plot and local customs. The event draws crowds from across the region and is supported by the hard work of volunteers who spend months preparing the traditional hazel torches and building the bonfire. This community-led event is a key highlight in the local calendar, fostering pride and participation.
