The fireworks show will this year be a the Mall at Fairfield Commons, though in previous years it has been at Rotary Park.

"We didn't know exactly how, but we knew we definitely had to do the fireworks show for the residents of Beavercreek", said City Manager, Pete Landrum in a release. "After the Memorial Day tornadoes of 2019 and then COVID-19 this year, people need to come together for a time of celebration."

Tune into the City of Beavercreek Facebook page for a show featuring Mister C, who will perform experiments, comedy and other entertainment at 9 p.m. before the fireworks show.

Fireworks will begin promptly at 10 p.m. Attendees are asked to maintain six feet distance from others and to enjoy the show in their designated parking spot.

There will be no restrooms in the parking lots and the City of Beavercreek asks that you plan accordingly.
