Lindfield Bonfire Society - Guy Competition 2021

Lindfield’s Guy Competition is on for 2021

Following last year’s fantastic success, members of Lindfield Bonfire Society are pleased to launch year two of their Front Garden Guy Competition for fun and ‘anything goes’ guy building in 2021.

Residents in Lindfield are invited to create a Guy and display him in their front garden or front window.

Remember to register that you are taking part by emailing your name and address to Mike, the LBS Members Secretary (who runs this LBS event), at: memberslbs@gmail.com by 16th October.

Guys should be on display from 23rd October 2021 so they can be judged. There will be some small prizes for the top three Guys and additional prizes for: The Most Creative, The Most Humorous (one that made us laugh) and Best Commercial Display (Lindfield shops and businesses).

A ‘Map of The Guys’ will be available from the High Street on 23rd October showing all the registered Guys, and providing an opportunity for some half term Guy hunting! Maps will also be available from Happy Feet on Denmans Lane.


Maps showing the location of the entrants in our 2021 Garden Guy competition are now available to buy and download from Lindfield Bonfire Society online shop where they can be purchased for a donation.


On 31st October, participants are invited to add Halloween bling extras like a lantern made from a pumpkin or, even better, a traditional turnip/swede.

“Lastly, and most importantly, Guys should be displayed for Bonfire Night to show visitors what a great community we have!” said Mike.

“But most of all - enjoy yourselves! If you don’t want to enter but you want to still build one, go for it! Let’s fill the village with them again!”
