Event DetailsIn England they celebrate Guy Fawkes/firework/ bonfire night every November 5th (since that is a Wednesday this is being held on the 2nd). It's all about remembering when Guy Fawkes and a group of rebels tried to blow up Parliament. Their stash of explosives were discovered and they were tried for treason. The British Society put on a professional firework display every year and hold a Best Guy competition. They also sell burgers and beans and toffee apples etc. The normal entry fee is E15 but they have extended the member discount to us!! I propose we meet in the Tara pub for some lunch and lubrication and head off to the venue together on tram 1. It's in Sloterpas, tram 17 also goes there. Have a look at wikipedia link below: www.en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Guy_Fawkes_Night |
