Can’t make it to a Bonfire tonight? Never fear, there are lots happening over the weekend too. If you’re in the London area there’s one on Saturday 7th November at Alexander Palace with events starting at 4.30pm. In adition to the usual facilities for disabled people an allocated viewing area will also be provided.
The entertainment will include the country’s biggest and best German Bier Festival in the Great Hall. The family friendly festival features ‘frauleins’ in the form of authentic Bavarian waitresses serving a wide selection of German biers and food to the table and London’s finest Oompah Band playing Oktoberfest classics. Adding to the carnival atmosphere will be Chas and his Band (fronted by Chas Hodges from cockney duo Chas & Dave), performing a rare set of Chas n Dave classics and there will also be an Ale Festival and family fun area in the West Hall, special ice skating sessions and funfairs in the park.
