Bath fireworks: where to enjoy Bonfire Night
Autumn is a wonderful time to plan a Bath city break. As the city’s many parks and surrounding Cotswold hills turn from green to rust red, Bath is at its most beautiful. Even better, if you time your arrival at the start of November you can enjoy Bonfire Night and a colourful array of Bath fireworks lighting up the city.
With Bonfire Night fast approaching, anyone planning a visit to Bath to coincide with it should make the most of the wonderful Bath fireworks taking place this year.
To help, we have put together a list of the best Bath fireworks to help you decide where to celebrate.
All of Panda Sanctuaries’ luxurious self-catering cottages in Bath are within easy walking distance of the firework displays taking place in the city itself. The fireworks taking place outside the city are just a short drive, bus or taxi ride from Bath city centre, please don’t hesitate to ask if you want some advice on how to get there.
