Our Northeast Massachusetts fireworks guide is new today, June 12, 2018. Our guide covers displays in these Northeast counties: Essex, Middlesex, and Suffolk. We will keep updating the listings all the way through the holiday weekend.
We list every event, big or small that we find. This feature is just part of our comprehensive coverage of the holiday. We also feature concerts, patriotic parades, arts festivals, boat parades, small town decorating contests, barbecues, carnivals, picnics and more on our 4th of July in Massachusetts page.
We’ve been working on this list for the past several weeks and we think that we’ve got Northeast Massachusetts Fireworks pretty much nailed down for this year. You might not agree. You might know of some small town fireworks display that we missed. Please write us with your corrections complaints and additions to our listings. We want to hear from you!
We list the rain date for most of the events, the location whether it be at the local school or the town park and we provide a link to the town site or recreation department site so that you can always get more information.
One note of caution, we verify our information and we double-check everything. We do make mistakes and sometimes the event date, time or location changes at the last-minute. We implore you to verify the details of the event, either on the town’s website or their Facebook page before you make a long trip or make big plans. We want to help you and your family have a great holiday!
Our Cape Cod Christmas Dinner feature is new today, December 11, 2017. This year the story is moving to our new Cape Cod Website.

Thanksgiving Tips from a Retired Chef
My partner, Val Gerischer worked as a chef in restaurants in Pennsylvania and New Jersey for over thirty years. Most of those years, he was in the kitchen on Thanksgiving day and offers these quick tips for dining out on Thanksgiving Day.
Reserve your table for early in the day so that you get the freshest turkey and avoid the crowds that tend to pack in around mid to late afternoon.
If you are a real fan of turkey and dressing and hate crowds, just reserve your table for the day after Thanksgiving. You’ll pay a lot less for the same dinner, avoid the noise and fuss of a busy restaurant.
Save a little of your holiday dinner so that you can have one of those yummy day-after-Thanksgiving sandwiches with turkey, cranberry sauce, and mayonnaise.
Finally, if you are cooking Thanksgiving dinner at home, please don’t get too creative or too fussy with your menu. This is one of those holidays that people want classic American turkey, dressing and cranberry sauce like Grandma used to make. Stick with the basics on this day and go foodie-gourmand crazy next week.

Find Massachusetts Fireworks on our Map
Our Map features spectacular shows coming up this summer and fall. Most are for the fourth, but some are community celebrations or beach fireworks.
Our Calendar is where you can visualize what’s coming up on each day of the month so that you can plan for your summer trips and great adventures.
Here are some notes about the calendar that we hope you’ll find helpful. We show any day with one event or multiple events in orange so that you can click on the date and look over a list of relevant events for that particular day. On some days, you’ll notice that we’re only showing three events. On those days, you can choose to click on more to get an inclusive list of all of the events for that day. Our calendars should help you find Massachusetts fireworks shows on just about any weekend this summer.

Our Other Fireworks Features
Our fireworks features can help you find Massachusetts fireworks displays near you or across the state. These shows are listed by region on each individual page and in order on that list by date.
Most importantly, our fireworks guides are written to help you find the best information in the least amount of time. To make these features work, we have to do a ton of research, organize them logically into geographical and interest-based categories, and most importantly, publish them in a timely matter. Sometimes, unfortunately, we don’t get the information until the very last minute. We’ve known good sized towns to wait until the day before the actual event to publish the information on the location, time, and pertinent details of the fireworks show.
Finally, if all of this isn’t working for you, and you don’t find the Massachusetts fireworks display that you’re looking for, don’t panic. You can always just drop us a line. Tell us what the problem is and how we can make things easier and better for you. We’re here to help and best of all; we don’t bite.
Our Cape Cod fireworks guide is new today, July 2, 2017. We research and list all of the fireworks displays that we find on Cape Cod, in Yarmouth, Falmouth, Hyannis, Mashpee, Sandwich, the Islands and more.
