The Eastbourne Bonfire Society

bonfire, n. [1. bónfir; 2. bónfaie]. Perh. fr. bone; said to be so called because bones were formerly chief materials used. Large fire lighted on festive occasions as a sign of rejoicing.

If you have chanced upon this website please understand that this is only the shell of what it will be. All of the pages are there, but there is precious little on them other than a description of what is to come. Most of these ideas have been liberally nicked from other sites and will appear gradually.

Should you be interested in helping, then please let me know by email to the Webmaster. Thanks, Steve

Welcome to the website of the Eastbourne Bonfire Society. We were rekindled in 2001 after an absence of many years, and finally achieved our very own first procession on November 4th 2005.

Follow the links at the top and sides of the pages to read more about us, see pictures of our events, and how to join us for the fun, friendship and community spirit that is Bonfire in Eastbourne and in East Sussex, the home of Bonfire.

To whet your whistle (we do that quite often!) here are some pictures of Boyes (we are called Boyes..) enjoying themselves at recent events. For more pictures look at our Gallery.

To help you find what you are looking for, please visit our Search page, which can find pages by their content.

You may also find that our Site Map can point you at the right information.

If none of this helps then visit the Contact us page to send us a message, offer advice, suggestions or something that you have written for inclusion. All contributions (especially photographs) will be welcome.
