Discover the best family bonfire events and firework displays in Manchester for Bonfire Night in 2026.
We are big fans of Bonfire Night, and as our friends at Greater Manchester Fire and Rescue recommend going to an organised bonfire or firework event, we have been on the hunt for the best Bonfire Night events and firework displays in and around Manchester and near you.
The council has announced the Bonfire Night events will be back at three Manchester parks for 2026. This means that there will be Bonfire Night at Heaton Park, Platt Fields and Wythenshawe Park. However the events will not be returning to Cringle Park or Debdale Park.
Plus, there are still lots of organised bonfires, firework displays and treats to enjoy with the kids around Manchester itself.
To help you enjoy a fun night out with friends and family, we have picked the best picks around Manchester below.
In Manchester, there is a variety of bonfire and fireworks events to choose from in Levenshulme, Wythenshawe, Didsbury and Chorlton.
We will be confirming details of more events as they are released. Make sure you keep checking back as we update and add more events in the run-up.
We always recommend that you check with the organisers before setting off in case of changes.
