If you were invited to dinner on 5th November

[batmanladybird]

Would you expect fireworks?!

[DentalWorries]

Not in someone’s garden. Maybe some sparklers and then all go out into the garden to watch any local displays that might be happening

[immersivereader]

Will there be children present?

[Pythonista]

Absolutely not. Tbf I would check as I would not go if there were

[CaMePlaitPas]

No

[Avarua]

Sparklers only

[OnlyFoolsnMothers]

No

[batmanladybird]

Only children would be mine upstairs

[batmanladybird]

We don't live close enough to see any municipal displays

[Bushkin]

No, sparklers at a push. IMO fireworks should be professional displays only

[ThePoisonousMushroom]

No

[Alwayswonderedwhy]

I wouldn't expect them but I'd be surprised if the host didn't mention if they were having them or not.

[Megan2018]

If I was invited to a bonfire/fireworks party at someones home that included food then yes. If it was a dinner that included kids then yes.

If it is just a normal dinner that happens to be 5th Nov and adults only then no.

I have a sparkler phobia so wouldn’t want them, but other people might (sadists in my view 😂).

[AlexaShutUp]

No. I would be a bit pissed off if someone had them and hadn't warned me. I wouldn't go if I knew they were having them.

[Medicaltextbook]

Depends- id check as I think it’s a bad idea and fireworks should only be at organised displays. Think it may very well happen and the evening will be interrupted by bangs. If you are hosting maybe make clear one way or the other so guests can decide.

[Hopetobe4mrfatty]

God I’d hope not

[ArblemarchTFruitbat]

No, but I'd expect parkin!

[Cantstopthewaves]

Adults only dinner I'd not expect to be feigning delight at the host setting off rockets in the garden, no.

[Thinkbiglittleone]

I would probably have to ask if I didn't want fireworks as it could really be either, neither would be unreasonable.

I quite like fireworks and we do them at home, so anyone as ours on that date or that weekend would be seeing fireworks.

[safariboot]

I'd ask.

I wouldn't object to there not being fireworks but I like to have them. No need for overkill though, home fireworks don't need to try and replicate professional displays.

[stillonthattightrope]

I would hope not because I really hate them. They'd be banned apart from licensed displays out of town if I had my way.

I wouldn't go anyway as I have pets who will spend the weekend terrified and stressed.

[BrilliantBetty]

I like to go to a firework display over the bonfire night week end so I'd be grateful if they could clarify.

No pressure to do fireworks in a home as it seem so unsafe. But if I know one way or another I can plan accordingly.

[SapereAude]

I'd make sure there wouldn't be because I think they should be banned.

[Pythonista]

As a PP said, I wouldn't do them at a private home because I know the affect it has on pets

[KatherineJaneway]

No

[dudsville]

I don't know how but every year November 5th catches me unawares. I've had some wonderful times in the long ago past but it just has fallen off my radar. So, in answer to your question, no.
