Whats On
Remember, remember, the 5th November
In 2008 the 5th November falls on a Wednesday and as a result some London fireworks displays are taking place on the weekend before and after. However some displays are still taking place on Wednesday 5th November itself so even if you didn't get the chance to see any events over the weekend there's no reason to worry, there's still plenty more chances.

Roundwood Park

The Roundwood Park fireworks display has been cancelled due to inclement weather.

Roundwood Park is staying true to tradition and celebrating Guy Fawkes by having its firework display on the 5th November so if you like to keep things as they should be then this one's the one for you. As usual with Roundwood Park's fireworks display, visitors can expect a spectacle that will be one to remember. In addition to some fantastic fireworks there'll be fairground rides for the kids, food stalls and more so make sure you get down. And anyway, what better way to spend a cold Wednesday evening?
