Welcome back!

Despite the long dark evenings now the clocks have gone back, November is sparkling, and not just because of all the Diwali celebrations, Bonfire Night antics and Christmas light switch-ons that happen around the city at this time of year.

Here is my guide for the best Firewoks Displays in London and not to be missed:

Alexandra Palace Fireworks Festival

Alexandra Palace Fireworks Festival: 1st and 2nd November/ Alexandra Palace

The Alexandra Palace Fireworks Festival is easily one of the biggest, baddest displays in town. Traditionally, the display is set to music curated by a big-name DJ – keep an eye out in the coming weeks for exactly who gets that honour in 2024 – elevating this fireworks festival from pretty explosions in the sky to full-on extravaganza.

What time do Alexandra Palace Fireworks start?

The fireworks will begin at 9 pm on Friday and 8 pm on Saturday.

Dulwich Fireworks Display

Dulwich Fireworks Display: 2nd November/ Herne Hill

Tickets won’t be available on the night the event regularly sells out. Once you’ve snapped up your ticket, you’re in for a treat – expect live music to accompany the main event, plus a host of food and drinks, including mulled wine, BBQ, Indian food and much more. The night goes on rain or shine, so come prepared for all weather.

Battersea Park Fireworks

Battersea Park Fireworks: 2nd and 3rd November/ Battersea

Saturday November 2 is the regular fireworks and bonfire. While Sunday November 3 is more family-friendly.

With Christmas around the corner, here are some other activities you might want to get involved in:

Skate at Somerset House

Skate at Somerset House: 13rd November until 12th January/ Aldwich

Somerset House’s iconic ice rink has become a Christmas tradition for Londoners and visitors heading to the capital for some festive cheer. There’s good reason – gliding (or, at least, attempting to) around the rink, gazing upon the Georgian architecture and 40ft Christmas tree feels like you’ve skated onto a movie set. There’s more to this rink than just skating, with pop-up gourmet dining and DJ takeovers.

Hyde Park Winter Wonderland

Hyde Park Winter Wonderland: 21st November until 5th January 2025

Each year, Hyde Park gets transformed from pretty park to Winter Wonderland. The annual favourite returns in 2024 for its seventeenth year, bringing a sleigh-load of festive fun with it. As you make your way around the space, you’ll find fairground rides, a child-friendly Santa Land (including Santa’s Grotto, where presents may be waiting) and traditional Christmas markets where you’ll be able to buy gifts for all your loved ones. Other highlights include circuses and, of course, the biggest outdoor ice rink in the UK, the Real Ice Slide, ice scultpting workshops and a German-style Bavarian Village.

Hope you like these ideas! See you all in December.
