Chiswick Pier Trust is also preparing for its annual Battersea Fireworks River Cruise on Sunday 8 November.

The trip offers a spectacular way to experience one of London’s most impressive displays—from the unique vantage point of the Thames.

The cruise takes place on an open-topped boat, offering unobstructed views of the fireworks above Battersea Park. While the upper deck provides the best vantage point, seating on the lower deck is limited, so guests are advised to dress warmly and appropriately for the conditions.

The open-topped boat departs Chiswick Pier at 6pm, with boarding from 5.45pm, and will travel downriver to watch the Battersea Park fireworks from the water before returning at around 8.45pm. Tickets are £43 and early booking is advised due to high demand. Book online at www.chiswickpier.org.uk or call 020 8742 2713.

Chiswick Pier Trust works to engage people with the River Thames. It provides access to the Thames and supports major river events, as well as organising events of its own.
