The Hillfields Fire Monster came out to spook the crowds again. The monster started the bonfire and led the torch-lit procession.

The art for the procession was made at a series of workshops run by a Community Arts organisation called Arts Exchange.

 Hillfields Community Bonfire
Children in their pumpkin costumes


This year the Community Bonfire offered a ghoulishly good time.

It brought a little Halloween spirit to the evening with the pumpkin costumes.

There was lots for everyone to do with circus and fire performers from the Coventry Community Circus. A lot of fun was had by all.
