Marblehead Fireworks
🎆 Countdown to the Fireworks 🎆Countdown
WELCOME TO THE MARBLEHEAD FIREWORKS 2026
We are so excited that we are about to celebrate the 250th birthday of the USA with a spectacular Marblehead Fireworks and Harbor Illumination on the Fourth of July!
Start times of the harbor illumination and fireworks are:
- 8:45 PM — Harbor illumination
- 9:00 PM — Fireworks
As you look forward to celebrating a wonderful Independence Day 2026 with your families & friends and enjoying the beauty of the “Ring of Fire” created by our harbor illumination, we ask you to please remember that this event is only possible because the Marblehead Fireworks Committee is an all-volunteer organization, and the fireworks display is 100% privately funded via donations.
We thank the businesses, clubs, civic organizations, and individual citizen donors who have already contributed to the 2026 fireworks display, but it is not too late to give, and we need your help to get to the fundraising finish line!
We are asking you to kindly keep sending your donation to the Fireworks Fund, so that we can do the 250th anniversary justice this year!
If you are coming to Marblehead by car, please check out our Directions and Parking information as well as our Views page.
If you are going by sea, please check out our Boaters page for information about the safety zone around the barge and the tides on the Fourth.
If you have a drone and are considering flying it on the Fourth, please check out our Drones page for important legal restrictions!
Sincerely,
Marblehead Fireworks Committee
