On Thursday, July 4, Buncombe County Parks, Greenways and Recreation presents the Annual Fireworks Display at Lake Julian 
Park. Bring a lawn chair or blanket and join the fun. The fireworks display is one of the largest in the area and this year’s show promises to be the best yet. Fireworks start after dark but come early and enjoy your Buncombe County Park.
Parking for the fireworks display is at Estes Elementary School across Long Shoals Road from the Lake Julian Park entrance. Be sure to wear comfortable walking shoes and bring a sweater or jacket. The evenings get cool at the lake. Remember, like all Buncombe County properties, Lake Julian Park is a Tobacco Free Facility.

Fireworks will also be held on July 4 at the Big Ivy Community Center, Downtown Weaverville and Downtown Asheville.
