What is Brown Gate?

Visitors arriving through Brown Gate will still enjoy the full Galactic Skies experience, including access to all entertainment areas, food and drink vendors, funfair attractions and the headline drone and fireworks spectacular.

300 drones. Award-winning fireworks. One unforgettable Exeter night.

Galactic Skies is far more than a traditional Bonfire Night event. The evening combines cutting-edge drone technology with award-winning fireworks from Sonic Fireworks, former British Fireworks Champions, to create one of the South West's most exciting family events.

Hundreds of drones will light up the skies above Westpoint Exeter, creating giant animated images and stunning visual effects before an unforgettable pyro-musical fireworks finale set to an epic galactic soundtrack.

Arrive early through Brown Gate to enjoy everything on offer before the main display begins. Explore the funfair, grab a bite to eat from the street food vendors and soak up the atmosphere with thousands of other visitors.

Organised by Exeter Round Table, Galactic Skies is a not-for-profit charitable event that helps raise vital funds for Devon Air Ambulance and a range of local good causes.

Every ticket purchased helps make a real difference while giving visitors the opportunity to experience one of Exeter's most spectacular nights out.
