AN ORGANISED fireworks display in Tranent will not go ahead this year.
East Lothian Council has asked communities to postpone events such as public fireworks displays and Christmas lights switch-ons amid concerns about social gatherings during Covid-19.
Tranent and Elphinstone Community Council has confirmed there will be no fireworks display.
A post on social media added: “The Christmas tree switch-on event in both Tranent and Elphinstone has been cancelled for 2020. The Christmas lights will still be up on the lampposts, and there will be a Christmas tree in both Tranent and Elphinstone.”
