In Northern Ireland, the Eleventh Night or 11th Night, also known as "bonfire night", is the night before the Twelfth of July, an Ulster Protestant celebration. On this night, large towering bonfires are lit in Protestant loyalist neighbourhoods, and are often accompanied by street parties and loyalist marching bands. The bonfires are mostly made of wooden pallets. They originally celebrated the Williamite conquest of the 1690s, which began the Protestant Ascendancy in Ireland. Eleventh Night events are regularly condemned for sectarianism or ethnic hatred against Irish Catholics and Irish nationalists, such as the burning of Irish tricolours, and for damage and pollution caused. Some are controlled by loyalist paramilitaries, and authorities may be wary of taking action against controvers

  • L'Eleventh Night (Onzena Nit) o Bonfire Night (Nit de les fogueres) fa referència, a Irlanda del Nord, a la nit anterior al 12 de juliol, quan se celebra el Gloriós Dotzè, una celebració anual protestant de l'Ulster que commemora la victòria del rei protestant Guillem d’Orange contra el catòlic Jaume II, a la batalla del Boyne, l'any 1690, que va iniciar l'ascendència protestant a Irlanda. Aquesta nit, s’encenen grans fogueres en molts barris protestants lleialistes, sovint acompanyades de festes al carrer on participen bandes de música. Les fogueres es construeixen majoritàriament amb palets de fusta i pneumàtics, i s'hi cremen banderes tricolors irlandeses així com diversos símbols del republicanisme irlandès i el catolicisme. L'esdeveniment ha estat sovint condemnat per mostres d'odi sectari o ètnic, comportament antisocial i pels danys i la contaminació causats per les fogueres. (ca)

Some are controlled by loyalist paramilitaries, and authorities may be wary of taking action against controversial bonfires. Not all bonfires are controversial however, and there have been attempts to de-politicize some bonfires and make them more family-friendly and environmentally-friendly. In 2021, there were about 250 Eleventh Night bonfires. (en)
