Guy Fawkes Night, also known asGuy Fawkes Day, Bonfire NightandFirework Night, is an annual commemoration observed on 5November, primarily inGreat Britain.

Its history begins with the events of 5November 1605, whenGuy Fawkes, a member of theGunpowder Plot, was arrested while guardingexplosivesthe plotters had placed beneath theHouse of Lords.

Celebrating the fact thatKing James Ihad survived the attempt on his life, people litbonfiresaround London, and months later the introduction of theObservance of 5th November Actenforced an annual public day of thanksgiving for the plot's failure.

Within a few decades Gunpowder Treason Day, as it was known, became the predominant English state commemoration, but as it carried strong Protestant religious overtones it also became a focus foranti - Catholic sentiment.

Puritansdelivered sermons regarding the perceived dangers ofpopery, while during increasingly raucous celebrations common folk burnteffigiesof popular hate - figures, such as thepope.

Towards the end of the 18th century reports appear of children begging for money with effigies of Guy Fawkes and 5November gradually became known as Guy Fawkes Day.

Towns such asLewesandGuildfordwere in the 19th century scenes of increasingly violent class - based confrontations, fostering traditions those towns celebrate still, albeit peaceably.

In the 1850s changing attitudes resulted in the toning down of much of the day's anti - Catholic rhetoric, and the Observance of 5th November Act was repealed in 1859.

Eventually the violence was dealt with, and by the 20th century Guy Fawkes Day had become an enjoyable social commemoration, although lacking much of its original focus.

The present - day Guy Fawkes Night is usually celebrated at large organised events, centred on a bonfire and extravagantfireworkdisplays.
