A luxury hotel has moved to quell fears from the community after 15 "show-stopping" fireworks displays during December were announced.

The Grove's Feast Over Flame pop-up restaurant will launch on Friday December 9 and last until New Year’s Day.

It will be held four days a week and involve an eight-course tasting menu, music, sparklers and fireworks for £95 per person.

The event prompted some concerns from local residents, including parents of young children and dog owners, after diners were initially told to expect a "show-stopping" fireworks display that would light up the "evening sky". 

However, following an approach from the Watford Observer, a spokesperson for The Grove said it will actually be a "display of indoor fireworks". The event's description has also changed online - now just describing them as "indoor fireworks".

The hotel was asked to explain the description change. It did not respond.

The spokesperson added: "The Grove looks forward to welcoming guests to Feast Over Flame and celebrating the festive season without disruption to the local community."

The restaurant nestled within The Grove’s Walled Garden will be open from 7pm until 9.30pm between Thursdays and Sundays.
