Under strict coronavirus precautions and specifically for Tarbert residents, the event had been planned for Friday November 6, as reported in last week's Advertiser, but concerns over social distancing controls have led to its cancellation.
Organiser Aggie Dennis said: 'It has been pointed out to us that we have no control over numbers attending or guarantees of social distancing. Therefore, we have no alternative but to cancel the firework display.
'It is appreciated that a considerable number of people donated money towards the cost of the fireworks, for which we thank them. We have two alternatives, either we can keep the money and hopefully provide the normal firework display next year or a refund can be given. Should you wish a refund please speak to myself or another committee member.'
