Need to go down for the 5th Nov, so where is a good place to watch them from.

Ta, P.

Centrally I've not heard of anything, so maybe one of the bigger parks a bit further out....?

Richmond Park is quite nice to walk up the hill with a picnic (& a blanket or 7), or you could buy my old top floor flat in Crystal Palace - you can lie in bed watching the whole skyline.

That said, most of the displays are on the 2nd or 3rd, so if you turn up on the 5th you'll have missed 'em.

I'll be somewhere near Earls Court, looks like there is not much choice for the 5th 🙁

best one i saw was in hackney when kids were thowing them at each other and using a 'big ben' rocket as a bazooka. Good times!

if that isn't your bag  Harrow is decent but a mission , Ally Pally is good but it's too close to Tottenham for comfort...

District line from Earl’s Court, this is usually a very good show and can be extremely busy

My Rugby club Ealing Trailfinders always do a good display & they always have it on the 5th - there is an entry charge though

Ravenscourt Park is about 3 stops from Earls Court and usually has fireworks.
