An article about the event After Dark, including images:

After Dark is a firework display which is organized every year at Don Valley in Sheffield. The event starts at 6, with rides, food and music for the audience to enjoy until the 9pm display. With the entertainment of Hallam FM and Big John Live the audience get in a lively mood ready for the bonfire.

Tickets are usually sold online or in the box office but don’t worry if you have left it until the last minute, you can buy tickets on the door of the event.

With 2017 being the eighth year up and running, After Dark gets even better.

Here is an interview with family and friends on their thoughts of the whole event and display.

I asked my friend Hurayyah Luqmaan:

  • What do you think of the entertainment?

– The entertainment brilliant as usual, keeps families and children busy until the display, but don’t forget to take some change with you (no ATMs).

  • What did you think of the firework display?

-Stunning, breath-taking and bright!

  • What was the best part of the event?

-The fireworks obviously. It was worth freezing my ears off.

Here are some questions I asked my parents:

  • How organised was the event?

-Pretty well organised, quick entry, big field so not too crowded in one place.

  • Who did you bring with you?

-My two daughters and her friend.

  • What do you think of the prices?

-Prices are usually similar in events like this, it’s okay for a one off event once a year.

  • There is always a parking issue at Don Valley when After Dark is on. How do you think they should resolve this?

-Unless you go early and pay you have to park all around Don Valley wherever you can find space. It’s a nightmare and you have to walk in the cold to get to the event. I don’t really think there is a solution for parking at Don Valley.

After Dark is a phenomenal celebration for Bonfire Night, don’t miss out on next years event!

One thought on “An article about the event After Dark, including images:

  1. You need more information about the event.
    Also you need to assemble this into a story – not just a transcript of interviews.
    What I want you to consider for your FMP is how you can take an issue, follow it up and create content that is written/presented in different ways.
    So is there a clear news angle to a topic? If so, that needs to be written in a classic news style (four par rule, 5ws of news writing…).
    If it’s a feature – you can be more expressive with your language and style.
