5 Things to Know About Niagara Falls Fireworks

Fireworks launch nightly at 10 PM from May 15 to October 12, 2026. Shows run regardless of day, but may be canceled in bad weather.

The display is visible from both the US and Canadian sides. No ticket or fee is required from public viewing areas.

Fireworks shoot above the American Falls. This provides a clear view from multiple vantage points along the Niagara Gorge.

The show lasts about 10 to 15 minutes. Arrive early for a good spot, as crowds gather quickly.

No reservations or passes are needed. Simply walk to any public overlook on either side of the border.
