Peterborough’s skies will be lit up on November 5 as a number of firework displays are taking place across the city and the surrounding area.
The biggest event will be the Fireworks Fantasia at the East of England Showground.
The display is being put on by Pyrovision, who have put on firework shows at Buckingham Palace, Edinburgh Castle and Windsor Castle in the past.
Along with the fireworks themselves, there will be a funfair and other entertainment – including the chance to meet the Minions from film franchise Despicable Me.
Other events include displays organised by scout and guide groups and sporting clubs.
