Oldham town centre is getting a fiery Halloween.
The free Feast of Fire runs on Saturday 31 October from 5.30pm to 7.30pm in Parliament Square. It is part of Oldham's year as Greater Manchester Town of Culture 2026, and it opens the town's free autumn and winter events programme.
The evening mixes Halloween and Bonfire Night. Fire and pyrotechnic shows come from Helter Skelter Arts and Juggling Inferno, and Puppets with Guts bring The Lips Halloween Show, a pop-puppetry singalong. Bessemer the fire-breathing dragon and Toni the giant bat will be roaming the square. A fireworks display closes the night.

"The Feast of Fire is one of the most exciting events in our calendar during Oldham's year as the Greater Manchester Town of Culture, and it's completely free," said Neil Consterdine, Oldham Council's Director of Communities.
