CANCELED – Lake Lure Fireworks Celebration on July 3rd

On 6/9/20 Town Council made the difficult decision to cancel the Fireworks Event scheduled for 7/3/20 out of an abundance of caution for public health in light of the COVID-19 pandemic.  

We hope to have a Fireworks Event for the Town on a future date which will be announced.

Enjoy fireworks over Lake Lure on July 3rd.

Join in this magical Independence Day celebration on July 3rd inside Morse Park Meadows and Lake Lure Beach as fireworks are cast over beautiful Lake Lure. The mirrored reflection of the fireworks off the lake and the rumbled sounds that echo off the mountains are truly spectacular.

Celebrate the birth of our country from some of the best vantage points in Western North Carolina –viewing areas for fireworks include the Lake Lure Beach, Morse Park, the Arcade Plaza (located across from the beach), other nearby areas … or on the lake itself.
