Bonfire Night falls on a Thursday in 2026, so London’s displays are split between Thursday 5 November and the weekend of 7 and 8 November. Most of them charge for entry, but prices vary a lot. A family can pay over £70 at one park and under £30 at another. We checked every display below on its official site or ticket page on 29 October 2026, so the prices are this year’s, not last year’s.

Free fireworks
Coram’s Fields, Bloomsbury

You don’t need a ticket for general entry, but it’s first come, first served and depends on capacity, so arrive early. Paid Fast-Track tickets guarantee entry but don’t give you a better view. Free Accessible Viewing tickets must be booked in advance for anyone with an access need. Nearest station: Russell Square (Piccadilly line), or King’s Cross St Pancras. Coram’s Fields Fireworks Night
Watching from a hill
On Saturday 7 November, many of the displays below go off on the same evening. From a high open spot, such as Primrose Hill or Parliament Hill on Hampstead Heath, you can often catch distant fireworks across the city for free. You won’t get a close-up view or the music, and what you see depends on the weather and where you stand. Our free views of London guide covers the best hills.
Free daytime entry at Harrow
Harrow’s Bonfire Night and Diwali event in Byron Park is free to enter from noon to 3pm on Saturday 7 November, with a funfair, food and a Diwali programme. The fireworks are in the evening and need a ticket (details below).

Access needs
- Coram’s Fields: free Accessible Viewing tickets for a dedicated area, booked in advance on Eventbrite, with entry from Guilford Street.
- Battersea Park: a free Essential Companion ticket for registered disabled ticket holders, and an accessible viewing platform at the back of the viewing area, nearest Sun Gate. Apply for both through the form on the access page. The platform isn’t seated, though a few seats are available.
- Wimbledon Park and Morden Park: a first-come, first-served viewing area for wheelchair users and accessible toilets at both parks. Use the Revelstoke Road entrance at Wimbledon Park and London Road at Morden Park.
- Alexandra Palace: accessibility tickets are sold through DICE. Saturday’s adult accessibility tickets were on a waiting list when we checked.
How to pay less
- Book online, never on the gate. At Harrow the gate price is double the online price, and Stow and Beckenham don’t sell gate tickets at all.
- Use the free tickets for little ones. Under-5s are free at Battersea Park and Beckenham, and under-4s at the Merton displays. At Battersea you still need to reserve their free ticket.
- Look at family tickets. Blackheath’s single-parent family ticket (£28.08) and Stow’s family ticket (£27) are the best family deals we found.
- Go on Thursday 5 November. Coram’s Fields is free, Stow still had tickets when we checked, and Wimbledon Park has two displays that evening.
- Budget for extras. Fairground rides, food and drink cost extra almost everywhere. Eat before you go, and look for the happy hours at Battersea and Richmond.
- Travel by public transport. Parking around the big parks is limited, and everyone leaves at once after the display.

Coram’s Fields in Bloomsbury runs a free display on Thursday 5 November, but adults must come with a child aged 19 or under. Harrow’s Byron Park event is free to enter from noon to 3pm, but the evening fireworks need a ticket. Otherwise, you can watch distant displays for free from a high spot like Primrose Hill or Parliament Hill.

Bonfire Night is Thursday 5 November 2026. Because it falls midweek, most big displays are on Saturday 7 November, and Alexandra Palace and Battersea Park also run on Sunday 8 November.
Which London fireworks are best for young children?
Pick a display with an early show. Coram’s Fields fires at 6pm, Alexandra Palace has a family day on Sunday with a 6pm display, the Merton displays have a 6.45pm show for young children, and Beckenham has a quieter display at 6pm.
Prices and times are as shown on each display’s official site or ticket page on 29 October 2026.
