Every year the Bay City Fireworks Festival gets bigger and better. With activities for children and adults alike, this festival is fun for the whole family. This year the festival is scheduled for June 30th - July 3rd.

What sets the Bay City Fireworks Festival apart from other July 4th fireworks displays is that you'll enjoy a full three days of festivities. Three days filled with concerts, entertainment, tournaments, kid's activities, carnival rides, military displays, helicopter rides, riverboat cruises and of course, fireworks displays each night with the grand finale display lasting 40 minutes.

Bay City, Michigan is located along the Saginaw Bay on Lake Huron and is divided by the Saginaw River near the downtown area. With so many beautiful locations for boating enthusiasts, the Bay City Fireworks Festival is the ideal venue for boaters who want to enjoy the nightly display of fireworks while on the water. The fireworks are shot off over the Saginaw River so prime viewing spots are plentiful along both banks of the river or in the Middle Grounds park in the South End of Bay City.

The three-day fun fest takes place in the heart of downtown Bay City in the two parks on the west and east banks of the Saginaw River. A complementary shuttle service is available for transportation across the Veteran's Bridge between the two parks.

Wenonah Park, on the east side of the river, features the World Friendship Shell where musical concerts are held throughout the festival with lawn chair seating. Concerts this year will feature a variety of tribute bands to include Paisley Fogg, Bill Haley's Comets, The Kix Band, Dr. Rock and The Bob Seger Tribute Band. Wenonah Park also features the "Kids Korner" where kids are welcome to enjoy crafts and activities for free throughout the festival.

The cost of the midway (carnival) varies because each carnival ride is priced indivdually just like most midway attractions. Sorry.
