Posted on: 21 Oct 2022

The smoky smell of the bonfire, the satisfying crackle of a firework, cosy woollen jumpers and the sweet taste of a toffee apple - we can’t wait for Bonfire Night 2022. 

 

For the last couple of years, events have been sparse due to the ongoing pandemic, but this year there are a variety of firework displays and bonfires taking place all over Bristol.

 

So, what are you waiting for? Get yourself wrapped up, grab some sparklers and maybe even some mulled Thatchers if you're over 18 - a good recipe can be found here. Below we've listed some of the top events taking place all over the city, so, select a Bonfire Night celebration from this list, and away you go!
