Remember, remember the fifth of November. It's that time of year again when all across the UK skies will be lit up by spectacular fireworks.

As well as the dazzling displays, huge bonfires will be set alight to warm you up on the cold November nights. A much-loved tradition dating back to the Gunpowder Plot of 1605, Fireworks night has become one of the most highly anticipated family events of the calendar, with specially organised events taking place all across the UK.

To help you decide where to celebrate this year's Guy Fawkes night with a bang, IBTimes UK has collected some Britain's' biggest and best displays for all ages to enjoy, from huge ticketed extravaganzas to free council-run shows.
