Where to watch fireworks

July 02, 2013

Posted By: Shaunescy

The 4th of July is upon us! Here is a list of several fireworks displays throughout the region. Where do you watch fireworks with your family?

Note: The city names are linked to various websites with more details.

Marianne Baumberger, Fire information and Education Tech reminds us:

"As you make plans for the Fourth of July keep in mind that NO FIREWORKS are allowed on Forest Service lands! Smokey Bear is preparing to be in the Fourth of July Parade in West Yellowstone and he hope you will enjoy fireworks at one of the great shows around Gallatin County…this includes the fireworks shows that are planned in West Yellowstone, Bozeman, and Big Sky.  You will notice that his sign around the forest will be showing our fire danger at MODERATE. Temperatures are expected to be warm and sunny so the chance for wildfires to ignite will be easier.  This means to be careful and don’t let the first wildfire of the season be YOUR fault.  Have a safe and enjoyable Fourth of July!"

Happy 4th!
