Watch The 2022 Ford Fireworks In-Person At Detroit's Riverfront Tonight

DETROIT — For the first time since the pandemic, Detroit's riverfront fireworks will light the sky over downtown on Monday.

The 64th annual Ford Fireworks show, presented by the Parade Company, will take place from 9:55 p.m. to 11 p.m. Monday, June 27, under the tagline "Hey Detroit! The Sky Shines for You." The firework spectacle is generally ranked among the largest fireworks displays in the country and is expected to draw hundreds of thousands of spectators.

To start the night, the two companies will be hosting the first in-person Ford Fireworks celebration at Hart Plaza since the pandemic. The last two years, the show was broadcast live from Lake St. Clair Metropark due to COVID-19 gathering restrictions.

There will also be a Rooftop Party on the roof of the Center Garage parking center, located off Renaissance Drive West near the Renaissance Center. The party will include food, drinks, games, giveaways and live music by Your Generation in Concert. Tickets can be purchased online at the Parade Company's website.

Passengers can also ride the Qline for free and will be dropped off a block from Hart Plaza and the Renaissance Center.

In an effort to increase security around the show, the city spent $1.4 million in bond money to buy 10 mobile weapon detectors. The "next generation" technology is part of the city's way to help battle gun violence, that has plagued the show before.

The fireworks show will also be broadcast live on WDIV.
