Verwood’s Flameburst was a huge success on Saturday. Thousands of people turned up to enjoy the musical entertainment, the funfair and two spectacular firework displays.
Local Verwood girl – Samantha and a Katie Perry tribute act entertained the crowd in between the fireworks and youngsters made the most of the funfair.
The theme this year was ‘The Dambusters’ – and the bonfire was ignited by an exploding ‘bouncing bomb’ across a small lake.
What’s more – the rain held off until the fireworks were over.
Local police said the event was very well organised and went off extremely smoothly.
The event is run to raise money for local schools and charities and Flameburst has become a popular and established event in Verwood, drawing visitors from miles around.
