Event Details
The McHenry Fiesta Days Music Fest Weekend will take place July 10–12, 2026, at Petersen Park, with festivities culminating in a fireworks display on Sunday night. The fireworks show is scheduled for approximately 9:30 p.m. on Sunday, July 12, following the final live music performances of the weekend. The display will be launched from the Petersen Park grounds and will be visible throughout the park and surrounding lakefront areas.
Fiesta Days is a free admission event, with no gate or parking fee, though parking is limited and attendees are encouraged to arrive early for the best viewing spots. The fireworks are presented as the grand finale of a full day of activities, including Beach Bash family programming, live entertainment, carnival rides, and yard games.
Earlier in the day on Sunday, families can enjoy Beach Bash activities from noon to 4 p.m., along with RC racing, food vendors, and children’s entertainment. The fireworks follow a full evening of music on the main stage, closing out the festival weekend.
