Crowds flocked to see the “spectacular” display at Hertfordshire’s largest free fireworks show.

Yesterday (November 5), crowds gathered in the Watford park from 6pm to 8.30pm to see the Bonfire Night celebrations organised by Watford Borough Council.

Cassiobury Park may have been wet and muddy but that didn’t stop the night from being an amazing occasion.

As well as the fireworks, there was also plenty of entertainment for visitors including a DJ set by Watford-based Vibe Radio, competitions, live performances, food and drink, funfair rides, bungee trampolines and a bouncy slide.
