Tim Nicholls, of Dynamite, said: “This year, we are adding a second display that will be a special low-noise one earlier in the night that will be aimed at kids before the big main display later on.
“This is in addtion to the main show, which is already one of the biggest in Nottinghamshire as it is and we’ve added to it each year with food vendors and the funfair.
“Last year, we added in a fire performer and now this year, we’re adding in the kids display.
“Each year, as the event has grown, we’ve made it bigger.”
The popularity of the event is reflected in the numbers attending, with more than 3,600 people coming through the gates last year.
