Wisconsin has several major events guaranteeing fireworks shows you will not soon forget:
Festival Foods Fireworks: This is maybe the most well-attended fireworks show in the area. Festival Foods will put on an outstanding 32 simultaneous fireworks displays across several communities in Wisconsin on July 4th, 2025. Leading up to the main event, these free family-friendly events frequently offer live music, food vendors, and other activities.
Among other places, Appleton, Baraboo, Chippewa Falls, Eau Claire, Fond du Lac, Green Bay, Hartford, Kenosha, Manitowoc, and Oshkosh are among the venues offered. Every place has a different view, whether it’s in a park, downtown, or over a lake. Green Bay’s “Fire Over the Fox,” for example, is said to be the biggest fireworks exhibit north of Milwaukee, generally including national acts and a water skier show.
Still to come, such preparations for 2025 will present Milwaukee’s yearly lakefront fireworks display as a very expected event. This hourlong display usually runs close to Veterans Park and adorns the city’s skyline with glowing beauty. For families and people of all ages, the lakefront is a favorite selection since there are many viewing points.
Celebrate America featuring Fireworks (Kenosha): Kenosha goes all out for Independence Day with a multiday celebration culminating in a spectacular fireworks display over Lake Michigan on Friday, July 4th, 2025.
