Boyfriend unhappy about me attending an event on my own, am I in the wrong?

It’s bonfire night tonight and I was planning to go to the nearest town to watch the bonfire/ fireworks event by myself simply to fill an evening (I live in a small rural village, so no events near me). I’m very happy going to things by myself so I didn’t think anything of it and was just going to have a nice evening to myself and watch the display. My boyfriend lives in the town where the display is happening, and I let him know I was planning to go to this event. Earlier he had said he was going to see a movie in the evening (by himself!) so I knew he was busy and that is why I decided to simply go by myself. However, he immediately made it very clear he was unhappy about me going alone and that he would miss his movie to go with me. I asked him if he actually wanted to go, and he never actually expressed wanting to go other than I ‘couldn’t go on my own’. Obviously I’m going to spend the whole event feeling bad about being the reason he misses his movie so I insisted that he goes to his movie and that I’m happy going alone as I could sense he didn’t actually want to go other than to stop me going alone. I would rather just go by myself and relax instead of feeling guilty that he was missing his movie for something he didn’t want to do. He then told me he found it very strange that I was travelling all the way to his town (it’s a 50 minute bus ride either way) just to go to an event by myself and kept emphasising how odd he found it, which I didn’t get because he knew I just wanted to see the bonfire. It felt like he was suspicious of me which I think was unfair as I’ve given him no reason not to trust me and have absolutely no ill intentions. I felt stuck in a position where either I go and force him to miss his movie that he actually wants to see, or I don’t go at all. Am I being a jerk for wanting to go alone??
