Bonfire Night is a much-loved autumn tradition, and there are several organised fireworks displays planned across Conwy County around Guy Fawkes Night on Thursday 5 November 2026.
This early round-up includes the information available so far, with some finer details still to be confirmed by organisers. Please check directly with the event organiser before travelling, especially in the event of poor weather or last-minute changes.
Why choose an organised fireworks display?
Organised displays are a safer, easier and often more impressive way to enjoy Bonfire Night. Many events also include extras such as hot food, refreshments, music, a public bonfire or family-friendly entertainment, helping to make the evening feel like a proper autumn occasion.
Firework safety
If you are planning fireworks at home, always follow the Firework Code. Light one firework at a time, keep spectators at a safe distance and never return to a lit firework. Spent fireworks and duds should never be thrown onto a bonfire. You can read the full Firework Code here: Firework Code.
