Farmington's Independence Eve Fireworks Celebration
Starts: 9:00 PM
Location: Prescott Field, Farmington
The Farmington skyline will sparkle July 3rd as fireworks light up Independence Eve, thanks to a few local businesses.
Big Sky Grill, Franklin savings Bank, and Kyes Insurance are sponsoring the event, which will have a spectacular finale, courtesy of Coca Cola of Farmington.
The fireworks show will commence at dusk, approximately 9 p.m., over Prescott Field off Front Street. Prior to the evening display, there will be horse-drawn wagon rides with Kendric Charles, sponsored by Mainestone Jewelry, and music on the field, featuring the Court Jesters.
Thanks to the sponsors, this is a free event. :-)
“This is a citizen-initiated event that is made possible by a dedicated all-volunteer staff,” said John Moore, owner of the Narrow Gauge Cinemas and Big Sky Grill.
“Fireworks set a magnificent tone for the 4th of July festivities to follow,” said Tim Thompson, president and CEO at Franklin Savings Bank. “We are pleased we can help make this tradition happen.”
The show is free but spectators are urged to be respectful of property while viewing. While there is plenty of field space adjacent to the fields for a lawn chair or blanket, viewers are asked to not stand or sit on the UMF playing fields.
