November has just started and that can only mean one thing. It is time for Bonfire Night again! For us firework lovers this is a fantastic night and there are plenty of things going on in and around London.
Here are the top 5 events to attend if you aren’t having your own party and are looking for some fun Bonfire Night magic in London!
1. Hackney Firework Pyromusical
Hackney Council hasn’t organised a fireworks display for over 10 years but they are coming back with a bang this year. The borough is organising a firework pyromusical, which will have anything from stunning fireworks to astonishing fire-eaters to keep you entertained.
Although the tickets are sold out to the actual event, there are plenty of things to do nearby. On top of this, you will be able to enjoy the fireworks from close by, so if you are in the area you should definitely head down to the Stoke Newington location.
When: The event takes place on 8 November
2. The Lord Mayor’s Fireworks Display
One of the firework displays in London that never disappoints is the Lord Mayor’s Fireworks Display. You can first see the magnificent river pageant in the morning and then enjoy the fireworks later on in the evening.
You can marvel at the fireworks from multiple locations at the riverbank, but for the best view you should head down to the riverside between Waterloo and Blackfriars Bridge. Keep in mind that the area gets crowded very quickly, so you want to get there on time and perhaps enjoy a pint at a nearby pub.
When: The event takes place on 8 November
3. Southwark’s Fireworks Night
Southwark Council has been organising Bonfire Night firework displays for a number of years now and it is always a fantastic event to go to. You’ll be able to enjoy music, light circus performances and it is one of the best fireworks displays to attend if you have children, as there is plenty of things for the kids to do.
The Southwark Park also has plenty of food and drinks stalls to ensure you’ll stay warm throughout the evening! The event is free for everyone to enjoy, but do make your way early enough to get a good spot for the display.
When: The event takes place on 5 November
4. Battersea Park Fireworks Display
Battersea Park fireworks display is another one of those annual shows that never fails to impress. You’ll enjoy a great fireworks display at the park, but there are also plenty of other things to do. For example, this year there is an exciting fire performance by the FlameOz.
You need to book tickets online. Don’t worry if you don’t get tickets to the actual event, as you’ll still be able to view the fireworks near the Battersea Park Millennium Arena for free.
When: The event takes place on 8 November
5. Brockwell Park Fireworks
Finally, perhaps the most ambitious of all London’s Bonfire Night fireworks is the Brockwell Park firework display this year. Lambeth Council has put all of its effort into creating a magnificent occasion for the whole family to enjoy.
There is a mechanical flying firebird to look out for, as well as a musical dance show by the London Samba group. Naturally, you’ll also get to enjoy a magnificent fireworks display and the lighting of the Bonfire.
There are still a few tickets left, so book yours online now.
When: The event takes place on 5 November.
The above should all be magnificent fireworks displays to attend for this year’s Bonfire Night celebrations. Of course, you can also visit our website to get fireworks for your own party this year!
