Remember, remember the 5th of November…local fireworks displays have started going on sale, so I’ll be adding to this list over the coming weeks.
This guide details all the fireworks displays I've come across locally in Hertfordshire and Bedfordshire, plus some larger displays beyond that may be worth travelling to.
Many displays won't have tickets available on the night, so do check details if you need to pre book.
It's worth bearing in mind that many displays now ban sparklers.
Some events provide parking, but many do not, so please do check in advance.
