Hire A Minibus to a Guy Fawkes Night event

ImageRemember, remember, the 5th of November. This year it falls on a Saturday, meaning you and your pals can really have a fantastic night out watching the fireworks, drinking a few pints and having lots of laughter and fun.

If you live in Greater London, or in Hertfordshire and Buckinghamshire, you are in luck, as there are many major Guy Fawkes Night events happening around London. These events all have great fireworks displays, while some even have a host of entertainments including re-enactments of the Gunpowder Plot, live music, fun fair with rides, ice-skating, a German beer festival, and many more before the real deal. Some event starts as early as 12pm, so make it an afternoon-plus-evening out with your family members and friends.

Hire a Minibus to take your group there

Thinking about going to one of these Guy Fawkes Night events around London, maybe a group of you, a club perhaps? Choose Met Coaches as your safe, reliable and professional minibus/coach provider. We pick you up on time – everyone in your group will arrive on time to start the fun; and we send you home safely – you don’t have to worry about drink-driving or rushing to get the train. There is no concern even if the November weather is cold and rainy – you are seated comfortably in our spacious minibus.

Met Coaches is one of the largest minibus and coach operators in Greater London. Our price is highly competitive and our service is unparalleled. So talk to us today and make this year’s Guy Fawkes Night a memorable one for you and your group.

After many pints and many sausages, there will be an impressive firework displays. Tickets are required.
