Celebrate New Year’s Eve at Wroxham Barns with a Low-Noise Fireworks
If you’re looking for a family-friendly way to welcome 2025 without the high decibels of traditional fireworks displays, Wroxham Barns has got you covered. This Norfolk venue is once again hosting its New Year’s Eve Low Bang Firework Event, designed to be just as impressive as the big shows but kinder on the ears.
Set in the tranquil Norfolk countryside, just ten miles from Norwich, this is the perfect way to ring in the New Year with little ones, or if you simply prefer a more mellow celebration.
What to Expect at Wroxham Barns
The event kicks off at 4pm and runs until 8pm, making it ideal for families who want to celebrate without the midnight mayhem. Bring along camping chairs and blankets, which you can stash at your very own pitch in the firework field.
Each pitch is generously spaced two metres apart, so you’ll have a front-row seat to the fireworks without feeling like you’re elbow-to-elbow with the neighbours.
Wroxham Barns is pulling out all the stops this year with its biggest low-bang display ever. The show starts at 7:45pm and will be set to child-friendly music, ensuring it’s a sensory delight without being overwhelming for the little ones.
But the fun doesn’t stop there. You'll get unlimited access to the Wroxham Barns Fun Park, complete with rides, mini golf, and bouncy pillows. To add to the festive spirit, Moore Madness will be on hand to entertain the kids with games and a fantastic party atmosphere.
When it’s time to refuel, you’ll be spoiled for choice. Food trucks serving sweet and savoury treats, plus cafés dishing up hot and cold food, mean there’s something for everyone. And for the grown-ups? The licensed bar ensures you can raise a glass or two to welcome 2025 in style.
A Toast to the New Year—Before Midnight
The beauty of this event is that you can celebrate New Year’s Eve without needing a late-night caffeine boost. The evening culminates with the evening firework display, rather than a display at midnight, meaning you can toast the New Year early and still be home at a reasonable hour. Perfect if you’ve got small children—or just fancy dodging the midnight rush.
How to Get There
Wroxham Barns is easy to find, whether you’re arriving by car, public transport, or even on foot.
Drivers can follow the “brown tourist” signs from the A1151. There’s plenty of free parking available, including disabled spaces. If you’re coming by bus, First Bus and Sanders Travel run regular services to Roys Department Store in Wroxham. From there, it’s a short hop to the venue. Prefer the train? Local services on the Bittern Line connect Norwich to Wroxham, making it a convenient option for those travelling from further afield.
For the eco-conscious, Wroxham Barns is also accessible via a private footpath from the village, just 1.5 miles away, or you can take advantage of the area’s cycle-friendly routes and hire a bike locally.
Tickets and Tips
Tickets are £45 for a group of four, with the option to add up to two more people for £10.50 each. All tickets must be pre-booked, so don’t wait until the last minute.
Dress warmly—it is December in the UK, after all. The event is mostly outdoors, so staying snug in hats, scarves, and waterproofs will ensure you enjoy every moment, no matter what the weather decides to do.
