Here are five things to look forward to.


Bonfire Night

Remember remember the fifth of November. Every year we look forward to incredible fireworks, bonfires, sparklers, great food and fairground rides at our local displays. But if you fancy trying something new this year, why not attend Lewes Bonfire Night which attracts thousands of people every year. The iconic event is known for burning interesting objects relating to the town’s history or notable figures of society, earning Lewes the label of ‘Bonfire Capital of the World’.

St Andrew’s Day

St Andrew’s Day celebrates Andrew the Apostle, who became the patron saint of Scotland when the country’s independence was declared after signing The Declaration of Arbroath. This holiday highlights the very best of Scottish culture, from food and drink to music and ceilidh dancing! There are many St Andrew’s Day events taking place, although we recommend attending the Saltire Festival which celebrates Scotland in the Home of the Flag.
