This year’s event will look a little different than years past, due to the uncertainty COVID caused during the planning stages of the celebration. Seating traditionally reserved for public viewing will not be available this year. Additionally, there will be no live music, food, or vendors on the site; Hamilton Lake's site will be closed to the public. However, there is no reason to miss out on our epic fireworks display. The Village has worked with its vendor to ensure fireworks will be visible to residents who are 2 miles away from the launch site at Hamilton Lakes, making your own backyard the best place to watch this year’s fireworks. However, if you are worried about not having a clear view of the display, there are a number of different locations you may want to watch the fireworks at, including Clayson Park, Happy Acres, Franzen Park, and Peacock Park. The fireworks display is scheduled to begin at 10:00 p.m.

Have a safe and happy holiday.
