In modern day children make a fake "Guy" (like a scarecrow) a few weeks before the 5th Nov, and stand on the streets asking for "a penny for the guy?" and the money they get is supposed to be spent on fireworks to set off on 5th Nov (they probably just buy other stuff now though seeing as they legally can't buy fireworks under the age of 18).
Then on the actual date, we make bonfires to burn the guy on, and have firework displays and eat toffee apples.
