Nightly Fireworks at Niagara Falls State Park
August 5 @ 10:00 pm
The Niagara Falls fireworks series returns this summer with a five-minute display every night at 10 p.m. from May 17 to October 14, 2024. In addition, there will be special nine-minute displays on July 1 and July 4 at 10 p.m.
Niagara Falls Nightly Illumination Schedule 2024
Every evening beginning at dusk, Niagara Falls is illuminated in an array of colors. Recently, the Niagara Falls Illumination Board launched an ambitious project to replace Xenon lights with new LED technology, increasing both the display’s brightness and energy efficiency. Please note, all illumination times are approximate and subject to change according to light conditions.
