4th of July Fireworks Spectacular

On Thursday, July 4, Walkway Over the Hudson will be open to ticket holders for an unobstructed view of the City of Poughkeepsie fireworks display.  Spend the evening with friends and family taking in amazing twilight views 212 feet above the Hudson River before seeing the fireworks launch at eye level.

Proceeds from ticket sales support the Friends of the Walkway nonprofit organization and are reinvested in the park, helping us to host community events and programs, improve the Walkway with new amenities, support our volunteer Ambassadors, and much more! The Friends of the Walkway is a proud sponsor of the City of Poughkeepsie’s annual fireworks. Space is strictly limited at this event and tickets required for all attendees. Children 12 and under are free but must reserve a ticket online in advance for admittance.

5:00 p.m: Walkway closes to the public for event setup and safety preparations
7:00 p.m: Walkway re-opens to ticketholders
9:00 p.m - 9:30 p.m: Fireworks show begins
The Walkway closes immediately after the conclusion of the fireworks show.

In the event of rain, the fireworks will launch on Friday, July 5. Alerts will be posted online at walkway.org and the Walkway’s social media networks.
