Does anyone know of any decent fireworks displays this bonfire night in the Hull area please? I know there's the city centre one which is fantastic, but i've just got a new camera and there's too many people in town to get a good vantage point if I want to use a tripod. Or alternatively, does anyone know of a decent vantage point for the city centre display that's a well kept secret?!!

Atop of Princes Quay car park is a popular bring your own tripod party every fireworks night!

Hull college rooftop would be best though, permission allowing

I'm sure someone said that myton bridge was a good viewpoint for the freedom festival.

Are they lighting them from the same place?

There were plenty of photographers on myton bridge capuring last years display.I suppose the new hotel just beind would be a great location as you can get the deep and tidal barrier into shots

Fire Brigade are going zero tolerance on any fires this year

They are usually set off from the top of Princes Quay.

Last year and I think its the same this year they are set off from a barge on the Humber

Thanks for that, can't open the link though. If that's the case maybe myton bridge or the deep area will be a good vantage point, or maybe victoria dock - went there to watch the red arrows.

I watched them from the top of Telephone House one year - stunning!

Give KC a ring Trace - you don't get if you don't ask!
