July 4 - Healdsburg Fireworks
Due to the size of this year’s show and to ensure spectator safety, viewing at the High School sports fields will not be available again this year. Viewing will be available on the west side of the High School in the parking lot area, on the turf areas at Fitch Mountain Elementary School, on both University Avenue and Sanns Street, and throughout other points in the City. Most of the fireworks will be visible 200 feet in the air and higher so look for places that provide a good view of the sky above the High School.
