Hi All

Is there any decent firework diplays over the weekend near lakeside/surrounding area or slightly further out or any that you would recommend, or I could end up bringing the kids into work and going on the roof to watch

Come on the Posers cruise and watch the ones at the seafront

Good one on Sunday at Orsett Showground just off the A13.

Have been a couple of times in the past and it has been pretty impressive.

Best one I have been to in this area is at Lake Meadows in Billericay. Well worth the money, and although it is busy, there is so much space over there you never feel too crowded.
There are loads to choose from though:
BBC - Essex - Discover Essex - Firework displays in Essex

I second that - been there for the past 5 years

Can't go this year, as we'll be at a wedding

Thanks everyone for all your suggestions, looks like the Orsett Showground is a good bet, and we shall be coming into my office to go on the roof on Saturday should get a fairly good view from Canary Wharf.

I love fireworks except when they are at 1am this morning

Apartently there is a MASIVE DISPLAY at Gloucester Park in Basildon on the 5th of november!

Not sure if its a ticket event though as there was a stall out in Basildon town center this afternoon dealing with the event.
