Free, volunteer-run Bonfire Night fireworks display at Redbourn Common, the closest alternative to the St Albans city display.
Redbourn Fireworks Display returns to Redbourn Common on Saturday 7 November, with the funfair and food running from 5pm and the fireworks starting at 7pm. It's a free entry event, and because it's run by volunteers, there's no ticket page to book from — you just turn up on the night.
Redbourn Common has been putting on a free, volunteer-run display for around 25 years, and it's the closest alternative to the city display in St Albans. The whole thing is funded by sponsorship, bucket collections on the night, and raffle tickets, which is why it stays free to enter. It's a community effort, and it does depend on enough volunteers signing up to make it happen, so it's one of those things that only works because people in the village put in the time.

If you're planning to go, keep in mind that the roads around the Common are closed during the display, so you'll want to leave the car at the Cricket Pavilion. The funfair and food start early at 5pm, so there's plenty of time to get sorted before the fireworks go off at 7pm. Entry is free, and the display is at Redbourn Common, Redbourn, St Albans, AL3 7NB.
