Navy Pier kicks off Independence Day weekend with the dazzling Hilton Fireworks display at 9:30 p.m. Saturday, July 2.

Guests are encouraged to arrive early to find a great viewing spot along the Pier. Guests will receive “diffraction glasses,” courtesy of Hilton to add an exciting layer of visual interest to the fireworks display (while supplies last).

Hilton Fireworks at Navy Pier, accompanied by holiday-themed music, is just one of the many free outdoor programs celebrating the Fourth of July weekend.

Note: There will not be fireworks on Monday, July 4.
