July 4: Rockets Over The River

Email share
36th Annual Rockets Over the River Holiday Fireworks Display

Event Details

The annual Rockets Over The River 4th of July fireworks display is one of the most spectacular and unique in the West — as the pyrotechnic company launches the rockets into the dark desert sky with the reflection of each colorful explosion shimmering on the Colorado River.

This choreographed fireworks display launches at 9:30 p.m. and is synchronized to patriotic music broadcast live on KISS FM 104.9. 

Set against the riverfront skyline, this beloved holiday tradition brings the community together in a powerful tribute to America — part of a six-month, cross-border celebration of America’s 250th Birthday in Laughlin, Nevada and Bullhead City, Arizona.
