Annual Spectacular Fireworks Show at Crowley Lake

TOWN OF MAMMOTH LAKES TO HOST THE 2016 FOURTH OF JULY FIREWORKS SPECTACULAR AT CROWLEY LAKE
 
The Town of Mammoth Lakes in partnership with Crowley Lake Fish Camp is proud to once again host the annual Fourth of July Fireworks Spectacular at Crowley Lake on Monday, July 4, 2016.
 
The Independence Day fireworks show promises to be a bright and striking display of color in the Eastern Sierra night sky. This year’s “Sky Concert” will propel over 737 shells into the Eastern Sierra sky for a mesmerizing 20 minutes beginning at approximately 9:15 p.m. (weather permitting). Funding for this year’s Fourth of July show was generously donated by the local community, Community Services Area 1, L.D.C., and from the Town’s general fund, however, additional funds are still needed to produce this spectacular event.
 
Consider making a donation in support of our enduring Independence Day celebration. The Chamber of Commerce strongly believes that the annual Fourth of July fireworks display is an important entertainment event for both visitors and residents. Help us make this year’s celebration one to remember! Please make your contributions to the Mammoth Community Foundation. The Foundation is a 501(c)(3) organization, making your contribution tax deductible. Please contact Craig Schmidt, Director Mammoth Lakes Chamber of Commerce at (760) 934-2712 ext.1333 for donation information.
 
Since incorporating in 1984, the Town of Mammoth Lakes has been celebrating Independence Day with a spectacular fireworks show. The Town contracts Pyro Spectaculars by Souza to light up the sky above Crowley Lake. Souza is well known for doing some of the largest and most spectacular fireworks displays in the world. Admission to the Fourth of July Fireworks Show is once again only $25.00 per car, RV, or truck (excludes camping), and $5.00 per individual/bike (walking/riding).
