Bonfire Party Essentials

Bonfire Night is a nostalgic time of year. It is the ultimate ice breaker for guests, as it’s easy to mingle and has a focus for everyone to bond over the bonfire. Once you have established the safety aspect of the night the party side can be really creative!

Here is our list of Bonfire Night party essentials:

Provide a seating area away from the explosive festivities for guests to chat and eat. Hay bales are a lovely rustic alternative and can be accessorised with sheepskins and cashmere blankets. Hurricane lanterns will add to the ambiance, as well as fairylights, as the night draws in. We love lights hung around posts for a perfect Instagram shot!

For vintage chic, treat guests to toffee apples around the bonfire. Mulled drinks are the perfect warming accompaniment.

Serve hot dogs and pulled pork from a retro Airstreamer van, or we love a giant outdoor paella pan for an easy way to feed multiple guests. Why not end the evening with marshmallows over the fire, and a luxurious hot chocolate with whipped cream and chocolate sprinkles before everyone heads home.

After all the hard work, stand back and enjoy the magical fireworks. These party essentials will make sure your Bonfire Party really goes with a bang!
