Traditionally the 5th of November is a time of crackling bonfires, dazzling fireworks, and gatherings that light up the sky. However, for those looking to enjoy Bonfire Night more sustainably, there are alternative ways to celebrate without the environmental impact of fireworks and waste. At Inhabit Hotels, we believe in making sustainable choices, and we’re excited to share eco-friendly ideas for a mindful Guy Fawkes Night.

Candlelit Gatherings

Replace fireworks with a tranquil candlelit setup that captures the essence of a warm autumn night. Use eco-friendly candles made from soy or beeswax, which are more sustainable than standard paraffin candles. Arrange them around your garden or in your home to create a soft, flickering ambience. You could also reuse old glass jars or containers as candle holders, turning them into lanterns.

Toast Marshmallows Under the Grill

You don’t need to miss out on the fun snacks if you’re celebrating without the big bonfire. Bring the joy of toasting marshmallows indoors by using the grill in your kitchen. Choose vegan marshmallows, and keep an eye on them as they melt and brown to perfection. Pop them on top of chocolate digestives to make s’mores. Paired with a mug of hot chocolate or spiced tea for a cosy treat.

Watch Fireworks Display Online

If you miss the visuals of a fireworks display, consider watching one online. With many displays online you can enjoy the sparkle without the noise, air pollution, or wildlife disturbance. Simply gather around with friends and family, grab some snacks, and enjoy the visual display from your screen. It’s a safe, sustainable way to keep the spirit of Guy Fawkes Night alive.

Bonfire Night Vegan Feast

Why not celebrate Bonfire Night with a feast instead? Gather a few friends and enjoy plant-based foods that support local businesses and seasonal produce. At Inhabit Hotels, we’re proud to serve meat-free meals from our London vegan restaurant Yeotown, promoting sustainable dining with each dish.

Inhabit Hotels is dedicated to promoting sustainable, mindful living, and we invite our guests to celebrate in ways that respect the planet. This Guy Fawkes Night, choose a celebration that embraces tranquillity, creativity, and environmental awareness. We’ll be right here to help you create unforgettable memories – without the fireworks.
