Celebrity effigy to be revealed by bonfire society


The celebrity Guy for a Kent-based bonfire society is to be revealed on Wednesday.

Edenbridge Bonfire Society is set to reveal the identity of its annual 11-metre high effigy later, ahead of its bonfire celebrations on Saturday.

The group has been "poking fun at infamous celebrities" for more than 25 years with previous targets including Donald Trump, Boris Johnson and most recently in 2023, Sadiq Khan.

About 10,000 people are expected to attend this years event, according to event organisers.

The not-for-profit organisation has been running for over 95 years and uses the bonfire celebrations to raise money for local charities.

A procession through the town kicks off the event at 18:30 GMT followed by a fireworks display at 20:30.
