[ARCHIVED] Celebrate Independence Day Safely: Leave Fireworks to the Pros

The Village of Romeoville would like to remind residents that fireworks are dangerous and every year many people suffer severe injuries. We encourage residents to celebrate Independence Day with us on July 3 with three fireworks shows. To allow residents to view these from their homes, fireworks will be shot off in three separate locations starting at 9:30 pm, effectively tripling the number of pyrotechnics that are usually displayed.

The shows will be based from Volunteer Park (1100 Murphy Dr.), Lukancic Middle School (725 Normantown Rd.), and Discovery Park (300 S. Highpoint Dr.). The parking lots at these facilities will be closed on July 3rd. Due to liability and distancing required for fireworks, residents are strongly encouraged to view the fireworks from home as attendance at any of the three sites will be restricted.
