Fireworks season on the Delaware River is almost here and we are excited to bring you three exciting opportunities to try our version of FireworksByBoat. Tickets can be purchased at www.zerve.com/phillybyboat

June 27th – TallShips Festival

Following the free concert on the River Stage by the United States Army Band “Pershing’s Own,” fireworks will light up the evening sky. The fireworks should be airborne at 9:15 so we have some time to settle into a great spot on the river to watch the fireworks. You will also have an opportunity to get up close and personal with the many tall ships that will be in town for the TallShips Festival. The fireworks will be a great kick starter into the Independence Day celebration.

July 2nd – Philadelphia Orchestra 

Following the Philadelphia Orchestra’s Free Neighborhood Concert on the River Stage there will be a landslide fireworks display. Come down early to enjoy the Orchestra and break away early to beat the crowds, grab a cocktail and enjoy the fireworks. Following the fireworks we will explore the Delaware including the Battleship New Jersey and if time permits the S.S. United States.

July 4th – Camden Freedom Festival

Camden is stepping away from its reliance on Philadelphia for fireworks and will celebrate Independence Day with its own Freedom Festival at Wiggins Park Marina. The finale for the festival will be fireworks over the Delaware River at 9:30 p.m. Before the fireworks we will visit the S.S. United States and will return in plenty of time to be in position for a great view of the fireworks.
