Dulwich Fireworks 2026: Where to Eat Before Bonfire Night

Big coat on. Gloves located. Fireworks tickets somewhere in the group chat.

Bonfire Night is back in Dulwich.

If you’re heading to the Dulwich Firework Display 2026 at Dulwich Sports Club, make Megan’s your first stop. Join us for an early dinner under the fairy lights in Dulwich Village before heading to the display — then grab a takeaway coffee or hot chocolate for the walk.

It’s basically the perfect November evening.

When Are Dulwich Fireworks 2026?

The Dulwich Firework Display takes place on Saturday 7th November 2026 at Dulwich Sports Club.

Doors open at 5pm, live music begins at 5.30pm and the fireworks are expected to start at around 7pm. The family-friendly event is a fundraiser for the community club and regularly sells out, with tickets needing to be bought in advance.

Translation: sort the tickets now.

Sort dinner next.

Start in Dulwich Village

Dulwich in autumn just makes sense.

Leafy streets. Big coats. A walk through the Village. And, preferably, a table waiting for you at Megan’s.

Start your Bonfire Night at Megan’s in the Hamlet in Dulwich Village and settle in under the fairy lights before heading out for the fireworks.

The dog walk can be suspiciously short that day.

We won’t tell.

Early Dinner Before Dulwich Fireworks

With the fireworks beginning at around 7pm, make yours an early dinner.

Get everyone around the table and tuck into Eastern Mediterranean favourites, from mezze & warm flatbreads to little grills and plenty of dishes made for sharing.

For families, it also means getting dinner sorted before the excitement starts.

For adults, it means cocktails before standing in a field.

Both seem sensible to us.

Bringing the Little Ones? We’ve Got Dinner Sorted

Fireworks night is a big one for the little foodies, so start the excitement early with dinner at Megan’s.

Our kids’ menu is available all day, with a main, pudding & drink for £9.90. There are plenty of little favourites to choose from, including pancakes, pizza, mini mezze & chicken bites, plus pudding afterwards.

It means everyone is fed, happy & ready for the fireworks before you head off to Dulwich Sports Club.

And, crucially, no emergency “I’m hungry” five minutes before the fireworks start.

Heading to Dulwich Sports Club

Once everyone is suitably fed, it’s time to head towards Dulwich Sports Club on Giant Arches Road.

There’s no parking available at the event itself, with visitors encouraged to arrive by public transport, bike or on foot.

Which makes the walk there all part of the evening.

Especially if you have something warm in your hands.

Something Warm for the Walk

Before heading off, pick up a takeaway coffee or hot chocolate from Megan’s.

Then it’s coats zipped, drinks in hand & off to the fireworks.

Cold walk.

Warm cup.

Golden leaves.

Even brighter skies.
