NEWCASTLE'S 2019 SUMMER EVENTS
For the latest on upcoming community events, check the community news section.
FOURTH ON THE LAKE
Fireworks are banned in the City of Newcastle, but, as always, there is one place where residents can legally watch the pyrotechnic displays light up the night sky. Celebrate Independence Day with fireworks, food and music at Lake Boren Park this Fourth of July. Food vendors arrive at 6 p.m., Soul Siren performs at 8 p.m. and the fireworks show begins at about 10 p.m. Arrive early to stake out your spot on the Lake Boren Park lawn.
Wondering how the fireworks show all comes together? Interested in the science behind fireworks? This year, the show's pyrotechnicians will again share a behind-the-scenes look into their work. The professional crew from Alpha Pyrotechnics will answer your burning fireworks questions prior to the show.

Wednesdays, July 24-Aug. 14, 2019
The city’s summer lineup continues with its four-part Concerts in the Park series. All concerts go from 7-8:30 p.m. at Lake Boren Park. Get your fill of shaved ice, kettle corn and ice cream as you listen to music under the summer sun.
