Red White & BOOM! Celebrates 250 Years

Get ready for Red, White & BOOM!—the Midwest’s biggest fireworks spectacle, hitting this year with a historic twist: celebrating 250 years since the Declaration of Independence. With crowds expected to swell beyond 400,000, this 12-month labor of love, led by veteran co-executive director Shawn Verhoff, is bigger, bolder, and more meaningful than ever. Beyond dazzling pyrotechnics, the event features a massive Family Fun Zone and the emotional Ford Oval of Honor Parade honoring veterans. Verhoff calls this the most special celebration of his 30-year involvement—and with VIP tickets already selling out across the country, it’s clear this isn’t just a show, it’s a national moment.
