The city’s biggest and best Bonfire Night celebration returns to Midsummer Common on 5 November, complete with huge fireworks display, funfair and food vendors. Free to attend as always, the event is organised by Cambridge City Council, kicking off at 7pm, and will be compèred by BBC Radio Cambridgeshire’s Jeremy Sallis. “Cambridge’s Bonfire Night and fireworks is such a well-loved tradition,” says the city council’s deputy leader and executive councillor for open spaces, food justice and community development, Alex Collis. “It has always been a night full of excitement, when families and friends converge on historic Midsummer Common to enjoy the dazzling spectacle of this magical display. With everyone facing the cost-of-living crisis, we understand more than ever the importance of free community events.”
