People take part in the annual Lewes Bonfire night celebrations on November 5, 2022 in Lewes, England. Tonight six bonfire societies and 3000 people are taking part in the torch-lit processions through the narrow streets of Lewes for the traditional Bonfire night festivities. Lewes Bonfire evolved from a series of riots that marked the anniversary of the Gunpowder Plot of 1605, where a group of English Catholics, including the now infamous Guy Fawkes, were foiled in their plot to blow up the House of Lords. From 1850 it became the more formalised processions seen today. (Photo by Hollie Adams/Getty Images)
