3rd of July Fireworks: The Tradition Continues 30 Years!

Here in Milwaukee our big fireworks are tonight! That way all of the little communities around Milwaukee can have theirs on the 4th of July. I think its great because then we get to experience two great shows.

Tonight the July 3rd fireworks show will feature than 10,000 pounds of fireworks, with 5,000 igniters lighting more than 20,000 shells. It all takes place off the shore of Veterans Park on Milwaukee’s lakefront. Bartolattas, who has done the show for the last 30 years was dropped this year in favor of an out of state company. I hope they are as good as I remember!
