12 Places to Watch Fireworks in and around Lancaster County

The Firework show will be held on Saturday, June 27, 2020.

This year the Celebrate Lancaster fireworks will be spread out at two different locations; one in the Northwest quadrant & one in the Southeast quadrant. This means the firework shows can be viewed from various points of the city.

The brief firework shows will take place shortly after dark. The specific locations of the fireworks will not be announced to avoid crowds gathering. Residents are encouraged to watch from their porch, yard, or sidewalk and remain socially distanced.

A livestream of the fireworks will also be available online on the City of Lancaster’s Facebook Page. Please spread the word to your neighbors of the fireworks!

Celebrate Lancaster is an annual celebration of Lancaster City’s vibrant culture & diversity along with the city’s Fourth of July celebration. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, Celebrate Lancaster 2020 is taking a different format that spreads the event “around town” and does not involve large gatherings.

Celebrate Lancaster will take place Friday, June 26, 2020 throughout Lancaster City from 12pm to dusk.

Here’s what to look forward to: four mobile performances with musicians on trucks bringing live music to every neighborhood, food trucks in different areas of the city for residents to enjoy, and to end the night there will be a fireworks display at two locations (Northwest & Southeast Quadrants) at dusk residents can view from various points of Lancaster City.

The City of Lancaster remains committed to fighting the COVID-19 pandemic by social distancing, staying 6ft away from those you do not live with, and wearing a mask or face-covering in public. Be aware of this as you Celebrate Lancaster with us on June 26th.

Saturday, July 4th, 5-10pm. Community Bible Church of Marietta will once again open its parking lot for the Marietta fireworks and will also offer food vendors this year ~ Acorn Farms (BBQ), Auntie Anne's Pretzels, and Udder Bliss Ice Cream!

On Saturday, July 4, 2020, the City of Harrisburg will host the July 4th Food Trucks & Fireworks on City Island. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, we unfortunately cannot hold our typical Independence Day Celebration along Riverfront Park. However, we have found a way for everyone to enjoy some of their favorite festival food and activities safely.

Food trucks will have ample space for line formation with marks 6-ft apart to ensure attendees practice social distancing while waiting in line.

Attendees are encouraged to take their food home or spread out along the parks with chairs and blankets from home. There will also be online performances from local bands and virtual kids activities for everyone to enjoy from home.

Fireworks will be held at 9:15pm and can be viewed from miles of space along the East and West Shore. Social distancing practices should be followed while enjoying all activities. 

New Holland Summer Arts Committee WILL be holding our annual fireworks on July 4th, 9:30 PM as scheduled (rain date July 5th). There will be no concert in the park prior to the fireworks display. Please be considerate and follow the social distancing guidelines wherever you chose to watch the fireworks show.

All July shows in the park are cancelled with the hopes that we can reschedule all or some into September. At this time we are still planning to hold the scheduled shows in August but that is also subject to change based on the Covid-19 restrictions and state mandates. We will be meeting July 6th to re-evaluate based on the situation at that time.

We share in your frustrations and disappointment over this decision but the safety of our volunteers, musicians, and community was foremost in our decision making process.
