The wait is finally over. Lakewood Township’s rescheduled Independence Day Fireworks & Drone Light Show will take place tonight, Thursday, July 16, after being postponed due to weather.

The evening will begin with a spectacular drone light show at 8:45 PM, featuring coordinated aerial displays and animations above Lake Carasaljo. The performance will then transition into a traditional fireworks show at 9:00 PM, celebrating America’s 250th anniversary.

The displays will take place over Lake Carasaljo and can be viewed from North Lake Drive and South Lake Drive.

Residents planning to attend are encouraged to arrive early, expect increased traffic in the area, and follow directions from public safety personnel. The event is expected to draw large crowds as Lakewood celebrates the nation’s Independence Day with an evening of lights, and fireworks.
