FIREWORKS will be lighting up the skies tonight as Poole's Summer Breeze comes back with a bang.

The free family event, sponsored by Tower Park based motor dealership Breeze Volkswagen, is part of Poole’s Wave 105 Summertime in the South, delivering a feast of live music, street entertainment and a rainbow of fireworks to Poole Quay for six Thursday evenings.

Summer Breeze will launch with a celebration of cycling including the chance to test the latest bikes, trick cycles and crazy bikes, pick up equipment at cycle stalls or take part in the Bling your Bike competition.

From 8pm there will be breathtaking aerobatics to enjoy from the Animal Mountain Bike Display Team outside the Thistle Hotel.

As part of a new trial, the fireworks at 10pm will include special lighting, adding an extra dimension to the popular display.

Then tomorrow evening fireworks return at Bournemouth Pier.

A dazzling display will take place at 10pm as part of the Family Fiesta event every Friday until August 23.

From 7pm in the Lower Gardens and at Pier Approach there will be circus workshops and shows, fire performances, stilt walkers, live music and more.

The Heart FM Alfresco Zone will be playing Club Classics as well as staging performances from local dance groups and singers.
