Following a year of limited activities due to the COVID-19 pandemic, it’s been nice to see things start to open up again as we enter the summer of 2021. And one of our favorite traditions in the Milwaukee area – the Fourth of July Fireworks and Parades – are kicking off again after missing 2020. 

We’ve compiled a list of the 2021 Milwaukee-area fireworks and parades so that you can hopefully get out and enjoy the shows this year. We hope to see you out and about in the community!
