Fireworks Shift to Protect Falcon Nest

Fort Wayne’s Fourth of July fireworks are relocating to the Harrison Square parking garage this year to protect a nesting peregrine falcon named Moxie and her soon-to-hatch chick—perfect timing since the chick could hatch right around America’s 250th birthday. The seasoned falcon parents, Moxie (15) and Jamie (16), face extra nesting challenges, making this move a smart, wildlife-friendly choice. For the best views, head to the Allen County Public Library, Grand Wayne Convention Center, Foellinger-Freimann Botanical Conservatory, or Broadway Corridor—safe spots with great sightlines. Fireworks launch at 10 PM, right after the Tincaps game, blending celebration with conservation. Support the show:Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
