Fireworks Show In Wolfeboro Bay July 3rd
Hey All, Once again, for like the 74th year, our Family is going to shoot off some fireworks for our Family, Friends, and Co Workers. We do this off a "large raft" 100 feet off our dock! If your a boater, then our display just might be the best you could see on the water, float on over at dusk friday July 3rd at dusk! If you like what you see, blow those horns, ring those cowbells! We love noise! (Rain date is Sunday July 5th).

Good luck with your show, but...
...unfortunately it conflicts with the traditional Fireworks in Alton Bay that are always held on the night before the 4th of July.
As a resident of Alton Bay, and having missed only a few shows over many years, we have to support our town's show. Sorry we will miss you this year. We have enjoyed your display over the past few years, especially where it has provided another chance to watch fireworks from the boat, aside from lakeside community displays. (I do understand that you have to schedule when you can) Good luck and thanks for what you do.

Where should we go to find your show, just anywhere in Wolfboro harbor?

Yup, on the Port.
Come into Wolfeboro Bay and keep to the left side of the bay. It is past the Goodhue boat yard, which is to port, on the left, your side, the side where the hand with the ring is... well you know. It just isn't starboard unless you are backing down the bay.

Thanks for the hints. Luckily I know my port from starboard , bow from stern and keep my limber holes flowing!

Isn't it just as easy to remember port is on the left?
How are your limber holes? Of maybe you don't have any?

We are half way between town docks and goodhues boat yard. The firworks raft will be way out off our dock. Anywhere in wolfeboro bay will give a good view.

Can't make it
It seems like Brewster Beach might be a good spot. Hopefully someone will take video and post.

Wish they were the 5th so we could have three nights in a row!
Any chance the start tme between these and Alton's are staggered to the point where it's possible to see both? |

Yep. Terrific show. But man, we were all confused for the first 10m or so; come to find out it was different folks putting a show on.

Another FANTASTIC fireworks show - We thoroughly enjoyed it!!! It was a beautiful night made even more spectacular by the two planets (Venus and Mars??) visible directly above your display!! Thanks so much for your generosity!!!!!

Yes we had a drone filming. We will edit and create something for here as time allows. Glad everyone enjoyed the show, we had our most fun ever cookout and blast off ever this year! We were very impressed with the number of boats that took the time to come check it out! Enjoy your weekend everybody!

Wolfeboro Bay fireworks July 3rd
Amazing...spectacular display of fireworks and wonderful music along with the fireworks. I can say I have been to many large fireworks displays but this show is a finale display for greater than 45 minutes.
thank you for showing such great contribution honoring our country and freedom. |

What a fabulous display! Thank you, Sculpin, for your kindness and generosity in doing this for the community.
Were there two separate shows by two neighbors? Was Sculpin's the second one, the higher in the sky ones? |

Yes frdexplr is correct. Our group personally builds the smaller raft load, then the fine folks from hellsgate fireworks continue higher. But it's all from the same cookout party.
Hey frdexplr. You know anybody from the Billet Family in York PA ? |

Sculpin --
As mentioned above --- AWSOME ..... been to many firework displays (Boston Harbor Bicentennial included) .... nothing compares ! Will await the drone video, that should be awesome as well Idle Curiosity, was that a Company Party or simply friends & family? Can't wait till next year --- remember the rules -- you have to top the year before .

Skyview
I think it was Jupiter & Venus, not that it matters it was really cool not matter what planets they were. There is a free app called Skyview that you can point you phone at the heavens and it tells you what you are looking at. Constellations, satellites etc.
