Downend Round Table Fireworks 2024 is the biggest show in town, literally. So much more than just two fireworks shows, there is great food, all-night entertainment, bar, light show, bonfire, music, fairground and the after party!
Running for over 50 years, the event has grown from the brave idea of a few good men to the epic spectacle that lights up the skies of Bristol raising hundreds of thousands of pounds for charity. Generations of families know and love DRT fireworks.
Welcome to Downend Round Table. We are a club for young men (18-45) based in South Gloucestershire
We meet twice a month (or more) with the prime aim of having fun together. Over the last year we have visited the vaults of the Clifton Suspension Bridge and trips to Berlin and Budapest, together with taking part in Curling, 3D gaming, table tennis, curry nights, walking rugby, vintage gaming, Christmas parties, crazy golf, cake making as well as a few visits to the pub.
Round Table is also a good way of settling employees into new areas if they move with their job – there’s always a local Table and a group of like minded’ friends to help you and your family settle in.
Table also offers an opportunity to meet up with people if you are working away from home and want some an opportunity to escape the hotel!
Many employers see the significant benefits from having employees in Round Table.
Various business and life skills can be developed and honed through the numerous ‘jobs’ which can be held at local, area or national Table level.
Table Chairmen learn to motivate and encourage their Table in the same way a manager would run their team.
