Bristol's love affair with fireworks shows now sign of abating, with numerous fireworks displays planned across the city over the first weekend of November.

Here are the ones local to Westbury on Trym. Feel free to add any I've missed via the comments below.

What else: Food stalls with hot and cold snacks. No alcohol on sale, and none to be brought on site.
