Haddonfield Fireworks Show Switches Locations; Nearby Property Owners Denied Permission

HADDONFIELD, NJ — Haddonfield's Fourth of July fireworks will have a new home, moving to the former Bancroft school campus.

The fireworks typically take off from the Central/Middle School fields. But this year, property owners in the fallout zone didn't grant permission for fireworks use in the area, according to borough officials.

"As a result, in accordance with State regulations and staffing/volunteer capacity," the borough's Facebook page said, "the Borough is now required to relocate both the event and the fireworks to the area near Haddonfield Memorial High School."

Haddonfield will also host the Yankee Doodle Do at the Bancroft properties, beginning at 5 p.m. July 3. The event features games, food trucks and a moon bounce.

Fireworks will start at dusk.

Officials will close Kings Highway from Grove/Potter to Park Boulevard in Cherry Hill from 4-11 p.m. for the event.

The July 4th parade's location remains the same, kicking off at 10 a.m. from Chestnut Street and Kings Highway.
