How To Make The Most Of Bonfire Night In The West Midlands
The crowds are big, the nights are cold, and parking can be a nightmare — but with a bit of planning, you’ll be set for a cracking evening. Book early (popular West Midlands displays sell out fast), wrap up warm in layers, and give yourself extra time to get there so you’re not sprinting through the gates just as the fireworks start.
And don’t forget safety: keep clear of bonfire and fireworks zones, and if you’ve got younger kids, ear defenders are a wise shout to soften the bangs.
