It's celebrated on November the 5th in

England and some other British countries.

There are fireworks, parades and bonfires

where the people burn effigies of Guy Fawkes.

It commemorates the night of the 5th of November in 1605, when Guy Fawkes

tried to blow up the houses of

parliament: he wanted to restore

the Catholic rule to throne of England,

but he didn’t succeed. He was

arrested and then executed.
