Remember, remember the fifth of November! How could I forget? That’s the date back in 1605 when that pesky Guy Fawkes tried to blow up the Houses of Parliament!

These days there is a right old celebration every year that involves the burning of Guy’s effigy, huge amounts of cash spent on highly technical displays and big, brash bonfires.

In Leeds there are a number of events to choose from in the city parks - take your pick from the following:

Roundhay Park

"Guy Fawkes (13 April 1570 – 31 January 1606) was a member of a group of English Roman Catholics who attempted to carry out the Gunpowder Plot, an attempt to blow up the Houses of Parliament and kill King James I of England, to destroy Protestant rule by killing the Protestant aristocracy, on 5 November 1605."
