St. Charles Fourth of July Celebration

Thu, Jul 04 , 2024

8 North Avenue, St. Charles, IL 60174

Come see one of the best firework displays around for the Fourth of July! Fireworks begin at dark and make sure to check for inclement weather updates.

The St. Charles Park District, in cooperation with the City of St. Charles, hosts what is widely acknowledged as one of the best fireworks display in the region on July 4.

When the sun goes down, the night sky lights up with an ooh- and aah-worthy festival of colors, lights and sounds. The fireworks show is free to the public.

In response to public safety recommendations from the St. Charles Police Department and in collaboration with the City of St. Charles, the fireworks launch was relocated to Langum Park in 2023. This new launch site was a success allowing the fireworks to continue to be seen along the Fox River with the best viewing locations on the south side of downtown St. Charles.
