2020 4th Fireworks
Please post any info on fireworks events around the lake here—I'm thinking with some towns cancelling, it'll be more private displays.

Hoping the lakefront pyrotechnics will makeup for the lack of town sponsored events this season

Weirs
Probably old news but I noticed yesterday that the Weirs entire 2020 season has been cancelled. This will be different for us since we are across the bay from there with a direct view. There's been a great and noticeable effort to improve the displays as well and last year's early season fireworks competition between towns was a great event (was that last year or the year before???).
It's easy to see how COVID would cause the cancellation. Not only to discourage close contact but I suspect contributions for the displays would be hard to secure given the COVID business impacts. |

Posted on I Boat this morning:
"You are all invited to our semi private fireworks display at 9:30 PM at Weirs Beach on Saturday, July 4. Atlas PyroVision will be doing the display which is sponsored by Weirs Jet Ski Rental’s, Tiki Hut Boats of NH and East Coast Flightcraft. Please be sure to follow correct boating procedures while remaining 6’ apart. If you will be watching from Lakeside Avenue please wear a mask. There will be a couple tiki captains walking around awarding people who are wearing a mask with cash. We will give away a total of $500." Sent from my SM-G950U using Winnipesaukee Forum mobile app |

Has anybody heard where they will be launched from? Land? Barge? Trying to figure out a good place to view by boat

Post Weirs Beach Fireworks Report
Great job by Tiki Huts of NH & Weirs Beach Jet Ski Rentals. Fireworks were terrific and the Grand Finale was...Grand. These sponsors stepped up during a very challenging time. Seemed to be a large turnout on the water from what we could see from Spindle Point. Unfortunately, it appears this will be the only display at Weirs Beach this year.
If you are looking to rent a jet ski or host a different type of event with friends or business, remember these two businesses and their community investment. |

Wow! 💥
From our place on East Bear Island, we have never seen so many fireworks - at locations from Center Harbor to Gilford and lots of areas in between. More than an hour of colorful, and loud, entertainment. 🐻

Extra Ordinary
We were out in our boat in Melvin Bay with lots of other boaters watching at least 8 displays around the shore. Kudos to the 3 families in the cove to the west of Black Island. The fireworks just kept coming and coming. My grandkids starting counting "Finales" and counted up to 21. God Bless America and Happy Independence Day 2020.

Great show at the Weirs saturday night, thanks to the three sponsors that put on a GREAT show. The show was long and impressive, one of the best things about this show was that was at 9:30 instead of at midnight , for both young and old we were able to stay up and enjoy, midnight is way past my bedtime and my kids too. Hopefully in the future the display will be on the 4th and at 9-9:30.

Huge shout out to patriotism displays
The displays of patriotism around the lake during the 4th and last week, were awesome to see this year. Weather it was flags flying high from boats, fireworks displays around the lake or people on the sandbars shouting "God Bless America" as we passed through. We loved it all!!
Because our camp faces Smalls Cove (Sandbar) we and our neighbors were blown away by all the "private" firework displays on the mainland all the way from Minge Cove to Smith Point and beyond. There must have been 25-30 boats parked in the stretch between Sleepers Island and Smalls Cove with their anchor lights on and Old Glory proudly displayed just sitting and watching. I would guess it lasted at least an hour and a half. It was awesome! Sincere thanks to all those that have fought and continue to fight for our freedoms and thank you to those of you that took the time, energy and expense to put on those excellent displays.
