Where to find a fireworks show in the Capital District
July 4th isn’t until next week, but there are plenty of places in the Capital District that are lighting up the fireworks as early as this weekend.
With the Tri-City ValleyCats back in action for another baseball season, the team already has several days set aside for fireworks after weekend games. Fans of Star Wars, however, may want to take note of Saturday, June 30. The ValleyCats are holding a special promotional night for Jedi Knights, Sith Lords and stuck-up, half-witted, scruffy-lookin’ nerf herders, too.
Otherwise, the largest display of fireworks is expected to be over the Capital City where thousands of people will gather at the Empire State Plaza on Wednesday, July 4. Moriah Formica shares the playbill with Smash Mouth, providing the musical entertainment prior to the pyrotechnics display. More than 20,000 people are said to attend this event each year. So, if you plan to go, get there early and be prepared to stay until the end.
Below is a near-complete list of where you can expect to see fireworks.

Skip the snow brush today and hop on the warm bus instead! Easy, convenient and safer than driving yourself! Let us get you there. ❄️
Imagine an elevated metro system with solar panels on top of a plexiglass curved roof to power the entire system, contain the noise, and keep snow off the street below.
I could hop on a warm bus if the stops were clear of snow & ice but that usually takes 3 or 4 days
It's not good to put off for today to do it tomorrow
The #EmpireSkatePlaza Ice Rink is CLOSED today, February 13 for maintenance.
A big shout out to our crews who keep things running when the snow starts to fly!
