The parade headed through Main Street, and Lainshaw Street, entering David Dale Avenue into Lainshaw Woods. Once in the open area of the woods a bonfire was lit, followed by a professional firework display staged by “Midnight Storm” - Scotland's largest firework display company. The Bonnet Guild’s main aim is to give the town's children and adults a great night to remember, and hopefully with a large turnout and local support, it will be just that! As a special treat there will be music to accompany the fireworks display this year, so don’t miss out! The Bonnet Guild would like to thank our principal sponsors Arnold Clark, along with Keith Stewart of East Ayrshire Council, Police Scotland’s Senior Officer Superintendent Hargreaves, Chief Inspector Meikle, Inspector Peters, Sargent Williams and his officers from U division (Ayrshire) along with David Roxburgh Crew Manager and his crew from Scottish Fire & Rescue retained station in Stewarton for their continued support. Without such support and guidance we could not hold this fantastic event.
