Locals and visitors alike will once again be treated to two quality Lake Chelan Valley fireworks shows in celebration of the 4th of July and America’s 250th Birthday.
Saturday, July 4th in Manson
The community of Manson is gearing up for the “big show” with the 47th Annual Manson 4th of July fireworks display over the lake at Manson Bay. Saturday night’s display is scheduled to start at 10:15 pm. Start your day enjoying the shops, restaurants, wineries and more that line Manson’s main street. Mosey on out to Manson Bay Park for live music starting at 7 p.m., then prepare to be amazed by one of the largest fireworks displays in the state.
Come by boat, walk, or drive — but don’t miss the show as Manson celebrates America’s 250th Birthday with a “bang”!
Sunday, July 5th in Chelan
The next night, Sunday, July 5th, the Lake Chelan Chamber of Commerce will present Chelan’s first-ever drone show, illuminating the lake from Don Morse Park. Watch as hundreds of illuminated drones transform the night sky into a living canvas, telling the story of Lake Chelan and America’s 250th Anniversary through light and motion.
This inspiring show kicks off above lower Lake Chelan, near Don Morse Park, starting at 10:00 p.m. Tune in to KOZI Radio for synchronized music that brings the performance to life 93.5 FM, 100.9 FM, 103.1 FM or 1230 AM.
Important Reminder
Residents and visitors are advised that Chelan is a fireworks free county. If you’d like to watch the fireworks show from the water, but don’t have a boat, public fireworks cruises are being offered by the Lady of the Lake for both shows.
