The much-anticipated Ford Fireworks will illuminate the Detroit River on Monday, June 24, at 10 p.m. This year marks the 66th edition of the dazzling display, which promises to transform the Detroit skyline into a canvas of vibrant colors, drawing hundreds of thousands of spectators to downtown Detroit.
Recognized as one of the largest and most impressive fireworks shows in the United States, the Ford Fireworks is produced by The Parade Company and will be broadcast live on WDIV-Local 4.
“The Ford Fireworks inspires awe and excitement in Detroit and well beyond with a magnificent fireworks display lighting up a truly iconic American skyline,” said Tony Michaels, president & CEO of The Parade Company. “We are once again honored and privileged to work with the amazing team at Ford Motor Company to bring the people of Detroit and our region this incredible event for the 66th year.”
“Ford is proud to be a longtime partner of The Parade Company and to support one of the most cherished events of the summer,” said Mary Culler, president, Ford Motor Company Fund. “We look forward to bringing everyone together again to celebrate and honor America, our great city, and the people and communities that make Detroit so special.”
