Lord Mayor's Fireworks Display: Celebrate British tradition with a bang!

Each year people across the UK celebrate Bonfire Night on November 5th, when Guy Fawkes made the unsuccessful attempt to destroy the Houses of Parliament. And to mark the occasion, parks in London will come alight with bonfires and fireworks. The best of these is the Lord Mayor's Fireworks Display on November 12th, which will use more than half a tonne of fireworks, some shooting over 600ft in the air over the River Thames. However, you should be able to find firework displays in other places, including Victoria Park in London's East End.

Lord Mayor's Fireworks Display; November 12th 5pm; Temple; free

Remembrance Day: Pay your respects

An event recognised across the world, Remembrance Day sees everyone pause for a two-minute silence wherever they are to remember the servicemen and women and civilians who have served and died in conflict. This takes place at 11am on November 11th and Remembrance Sunday also marks the occasion.

Members of the armed forces and royal dignitaries attend a service before heading to Whitehall, the site of the Cenotaph, where the Queen lays a wreath of poppies. Visitors wishing to pay their respects can head to Whitehall and watch the London event from the streets.

Barclays ATP World Tour Finals: Bring the tennis indoors

For the third consecutive year, London's O2 Arena will be hosting the Barclays ATP World Tour Finals, which is fast becoming a winter rival to the Wimbledon Championships played at the start of the summer. Tickets are now on sale to see the world's top eight players compete for the title. Will Federer win again or will Andy Murray take it to the end this time? If tennis isn't your thing, there are other London events in November, such as the London Games Festival. A slightly less strenuous event, the annual video gaming event showcases the latest games and consoles on the UK market and could even allow visitors to have a go at unreleased games.

Barclays ATP World Tour Finals; November 20th-27th; O2 Arena; North Greenwich; £22.50-£104.00

Rihanna Loud Tour: See Rihanna at the O2

Possibly the biggest thing to come out of Barbados, Rihanna will be storming her way to London's O2 Arena in November as part of her Loud tour. And to prove her worth, Rihanna has now booked a tenth date at the venue, a record for the south-east London arena. Watch the R&B star sing her hits live including Umbrella, Shut Up and What's My Name.
