Music, food entertainment was out of this world. They all done well. My only criticism was the young kids walking by police shouting and drinkin for them not to do anything about it.

Loved my first ever Strathy Park bonfire night! So glad this happens every year, and lovely to see so many local families out enjoying it. Thanks to the organisers, best fireworks ever! What a display!

The bon fire is in the middle of the water ( still no idea how they do that), and there is a fun fair although I have never went round to that end as its very very busy, its so much more chilled at the other end of the lake nearer m&d's. The music is still loud at this end trust me and it echoes as well which adds to the effect. there is food and fewer people over this end ( so less tall heads in the way ) and u can sit on the pebble beach to watch, if u have kids with u then maybe the fun fair end would be better as it can feel like forever for the show to begin but if ur there for the fireworks the best place to watch them is right on the pebble beach. a lot more relaxed and enjoyable at this end of the park and takes less time to get out when driving as well. The fireworks are always amazing and always new, you never see the same ones two years in a row and the music goes with them almost perfectly, its timing is usually spot on. My family, friends and myself will be heading to the park tonight. Sure it will be amazing as always. This is a fantastic night out, a true way to celebrate bon fire night.

Arrive early as this will give you time to check out the fairground rides and stalls (hot food and drink available and toilets too at watersports centre) you can park(best to arrive early) in strathclyde park but can take an hour to get out after show ends. Suggest you park in central motherwell (aquatec and surrounding car parks or on street) then walk to strathclyde park as thousands do!.. Best spot to watch is near watersports centre as music is loudest here!. otherwise you will not hear the briliant music matching the fireworks (which does add to the spectacle). Wrap up warm (hat & gloves/thermals)as the wind blows off the lake and can be very chilly!. better still, bring a flask an sweets as can seem a long wait till show begins... Fireworks show lasts about 30 minutes...Enjoy! A Fantastic night out (been several times).

Only down side was the traffic on the way out,long wait,40 mins to get out,some of the crowd were, lets just say a bit of a handfull for the police,and all my grandaughter and her friend had to say was about the youths who were carted away by the police, i’m not against anyone having fun, but this is a family event, nuff said, see you next year.
