What to do for Bonfire Night in East London

Bonfire Night is a lovely, wholesome celebration, despite its origins. We eat and enjoy fairground rides before strapping in for jaw-dropping fireworks displays that leave us oohing and aahing beside a toasty bonfire. 

But unfortunately, Hackney, Lewisham, and many other areas have called off fireworks displays this year. But that doesn’t mean there aren’t any! To help you decide how you’ll be spending this Bonfire Night, we’ve compiled a list of some cracking East London bonfire events for you to consider. Check them out!

 

Faded Big Bang – Fireworks Night

When: Saturday 5th November 2022

Where: 60 Dock Road, London

Head over to 60 Dock Road to enjoy their firework display at 9 pm. But if you’re the kind that jumps at the loud bangs, head over a little later to enjoy the views of fireworks across the city from the venue’s outdoor space. Then go inside for the Faded party with DJs spinning hip hop, RnB, afrobeat, and bashment tunes. It is a Saturday, after all – you might as well hit the dancefloor!

When: Sunday 6th November 2022

Where: Entertainment – Abbey Green. Parade – starting at Eastbury Manor House and ending at Barking Abbey Ruins

Do something different this year at this Guy Fawkes Lantern Parade. Attendees are encouraged to bring their own lanterns and wear bright clothing, face paint, and glow sticks as they parade a Guy Fawkes effigy from Eastbury Manor House to Barking Abbey Ruins. It’s free to attend, and there’ll be free creative workshops where you can design your own lanterns. There’ll also be live music, a fire performance by Cirque Bijou, and a laser light show by a BAFTA-winning artist.

Where: Danson Park, Bexleyheath

If you’re going to do Bonfire Night, you’ve got to do it properly. Doors open at 5 pm for the Danson Park Fireworks display complete with music, live bands, stalls, food, and a funfair. This isn’t your typical firework display. No, this is a carefully planned display that’s choreographed to tunes. It’s going to be amazing, and any littluns will love the fun fair rides. And so will the adults, to be fair…

Possibly the perfect East London bonfire event for families with children, the Woolston Manor firework display will feature an hour of children’s entertainment from Little Party Monkeys, as well as face painting, singing and dancing performances, and your littlun’s favourite characters. There’ll be a barbecue if you get peckish because who doesn’t love a good barbecue? And, obviously, a huge fireworks display.
