Northeast Ohio Fourth of July fireworks: Where to watch in Cleveland and beyond

It's set to be one of the hottest Fourth of July weekends in recent history, but that can't stop the fireworks (🤞 we hope).

  • The free event starts at 5pm with fireworks set for around 10pm.

    • The Guardians will set off fireworks after their Friday and Saturday night games against the Chicago White Sox at Progressive Field.
