The annual bonfire and fireworks night, now in its 47th year, will take place at the Showground in Harlow Town Park on Sunday, November 2.
The bonfire will be lit at 6.15pm, followed by the fireworks display at 6.30pm.
There will also be a Pets’ Corner, where the welfare of the animals is a priority. Council staff will be on hand throughout the evening to ensure they are kept calm and comfortable during the fireworks display.
Free parking will be available at Water Gardens car park from 4pm to midnight, and at Altham Grove, School Lane, and Wych Elm from 6pm to 8pm.
Blue Badge holders can access limited parking at the Showground car park via Gladwin Way before 5.45pm, although vehicles will need to remain until Fifth Avenue reopens.
Toilets near Pets’ Corner will be open until 8pm.
Post Office Road car park will be closed due to temporary bus station works, and additional parking is available at Harlow Town train station.
Road closures will be in place to ensure the event runs smoothly.
Fifth Avenue, along with parts of Park Lane and School Lane, will be closed between 5.15pm and 8.30pm.
Access to and from Sainsbury’s will remain open during this time.
Councillor Danielle Brown, who is responsible for culture and community, said: “Bonfire Night in Harlow is more than just fireworks, it’s about bringing people together.
“It’s a moment where the whole town comes out to celebrate, connect, and enjoy something special.”
