Bonfire Night in the Cotswolds
We can all picture it now; the excited little ones holding their sparklers, the teenagers wanting louder, more explosive fireworks and the adults enjoying a hot chocolate or maybe something a bit stronger! Bonfire night is always a great time for a get together and here in the Cotswolds, we tend to excel at it! Also, unlike in an artificially lit city centre, being out in the countryside seems to have that extra bit of darkness that beautifully contrasts with the raging fire or lit up night sky.
We are fortunate in that we have a number of different venues where you can enjoy a Guy Fawkes celebration with a fantastic firework display:
28th October – Ground & Airborne Fireworks Display, Cotswold Gliding Club
The event will feature Cotswold Gliding Club’s internationally famous air display performance, followed by a fireworks display by UK Fireworks Champions Celestial Fireworks.
