11.Guy Fawkes Night – London

We are continuing our list of biggest and best fireworks displays around the world with the Guy Fawkes, that was one of the conspirators that wanted to blow up the House of Lords, on 5 of November 1605. The plan failed, and he was caught. The 5 of November was known as a Gunpowder Treason Day, but over the course of time it became known as Guy Fawkes Night/Day or Bonfire Night.
