The 2025 annual fireworks display over Georgetown will take place July 4 at about 9:30 p.m. Directed by the Georgetown City Fire Department, fireworks will be set off at Morgan Park and can be seen from the Harborwalk and other areas on the water. Morgan Park will close Thursday night at 9:00 PM. Parts of Greenwich Drive and East Bay Street leading up to Morgan Park will be closed Friday, July 4 at 0900 AM . Signs will be posted when this is in effect. Morgan Park will remain closed until the morning of July 5 and signs will remain in place until it is reopened. Please DO Not cross over or through the barricades once they are placed as those areas are closed off for the safety of our crews setting up and the public! Please do not park on the streets as emergency vehicles may have to utilize them to respond to emergencies. Spectators are encouraged to park at East Bay Park and place blankets and chairs on the grass behind the barricades. Please do not park on the grass and follow parking rules on any posted signs. This year the fireworks display will be coordinated with music provided by Georgetown City Fire Department, WGEO-105.7 FM. We would like to thank Munnerlyn Pyrotechnics for assisting us in the safe and beautiful display of fireworks!
