Gates open at 5.30pm. Admission is £3 for adults, while under 16s get in free. More information on the schedule is available at the Coleshill Carnival website.
Around 1,000 people are expected to attend a sell-out event at Castle Bromwich Hall Hotel.
The charity display will be raising money for Matt's Mission - which arranges family trips and gifts for youngsters with life-threatening illnesses and disabilities. Tickets for tonight's celebration were quickly snapped up, with organisers announcing they had all gone more than a week ago.
If you are having a display at home, make sure to follow health and safety guidelines and remember to check your woodpile for hedgehogs before setting it alight.
