WITH BONFIRE night fast approaching, many of us will be looking for a local spectacle to enjoy with the family or with friends.

On what is one of the biggest nights of the year on the UK calendar, people will gather all around the country to witness fantastic firework displays.

With that in mind, we've had a look around to see where Flintshire and Wrexham residents can get their feast of colourful fireworks.

Sadly, the annual display organised by Deeside Round Table has again been cancelled due to safety conerns.

But, there are plenty of other locations to visit and enjoy.
