Branford Moves Fireworks Show from Branford Point

BRANFORD, CT - The Branford Fireworks Committee has decided to move this year’s fireworks show due to road construction work.

On the Fireworks Committee Facebook page, the following is posted:

Please take notice:
The Branford Fireworks Committee has decided after much debate and input from town departments.
That the 2018 Fireworks will be held Saturday June 23rd (approximately 9:30PM). This is due to bridge closing during window to have fireworks.

The show will be fired from Ecology Park (old landfill). It always has been at Branford Point.

There will be no access to any part of Ecology Park for the day of fireworks.
Ark Rd and Tabor Rd will likely have only access for local residents with no parking on those streets.

The show from this position will allow viewing from many areas in town. Along with visibility from traditional spots, with an adjustment to your seating.

Foote Park will be the main town park for viewing.

There will be a “test” firing in next couple weeks for us to provide suggestions for possible viewing. As of now we do know that for boaters you will have visibility in all Branford waters. Stony Creek areas facing west will also have visibility. In the area of Hospice you will also have clear view of the show.

Rain date is Sunday June 24th.
