Details for the annual fireworks display in West Dunbartonshire have been announced.

This year's display will take place in Levengrove Park in Dumbarton from 7pm - 9pm on Tuesday, November 5.

The project is being funded by the Dumbarton Common Good Fund as the council faces 'significant financial pressures' and no other display involving the council will be set.

The display will commence at 7.30pm and a small children's fun fair will be available on the night.

Road closures will be in place on the night at Bridge Street between High Street and Woodyard Road.

The council advises visitors to use public transport due to limited parking near the event. It also asks any driver to adhere to the parking restrictions in place.

There are bus stops on Risk Street, Quay Street and Bowie Street and train stations at Dumbarton and Dalreoch is a 5-minute walk away from Levengrove Park.

For a second year, the fireworks display in Clydebank has been axed following a decision in December 2022 and locals are being invited to the event in Dumbarton as it is at no cost to the council and is instead funded by the Dumbarton Common Good Fund.

Responding to upset residents on social media, a spokesperson for the council said: "In order to address the significant financial pressures faced by the council, it was agreed at a budget meeting in December 2022 to cease provision of the Clydebank fireworks display and instead support any community group which wished to organise an independent event to access funding to do so.

"To date, no groups have expressed an interest in doing this.

"West Dunbartonshire Council is continuing to host one fireworks event in the area and invites all residents to enjoy the display.

"The West Dunbartonshire fireworks display in Dumbarton is funded in its entirety by the Dumbarton Common Good Fund and therefore does not incur a cost to the Council."
