Audio Transcript Bonfire Night celebrations are based around the bonfire, which is huge pile of wood set alight in an open space for spectators, but as well as the bonfire, there are other things going on: such as firework displays, sparklers which are handheld fireworks, and traditional foods such as pies, parkin and toffee apples.Sometimes families have bonfires in their garden and invite all their friends and the rest of their family, or alternatively there is always a public bonfire event nearby with lots of people and a more spectacular display. Traditionally, in the lead up to Bonfire Night, some children make their own Guys, a sort of model Guy Fawkes made up of old clothing and newspaper, and sit with it in the street saying penny for the guy and getting money from people passing by. I have been to a Bonfire and celebrated the event every year since being a young child and really love the atmosphere and sense of community on Bonfire Night in England.
