Guy Fawkes Night/Bonfire Night

Guy Fawkes Night, also known as Bonfire Night, is a British tradition celebrated on 5th November to commemorate the failed Gunpowder Plot of 1605, in which Guy Fawkes and his co-conspirators attempted to blow up the Houses of Parliament. The plot was foiled, and since then, Britons have marked the occasion with fireworks, bonfires, and the burning of effigies of Guy Fawkes.

Bonfire Night is a time for community gatherings, family fun, and spectacular firework displays. While it has historical roots, today’s celebrations are largely focused on enjoying the dazzling displays of light, warmth from bonfires, and the spirit of togetherness. It’s an event that brings people outdoors to embrace the crisp autumn air and the excitement of the fireworks.
