FORT WAYNE, Ind. (ADAMS) – The City of Fort Wayne today announced the top of the Harrison Square parking garage that’s attached to Parkview Field in downtown Fort Wayne will be the location for this year’s Fourth of July fireworks show on Saturday, July 4. The fireworks show is scheduled to begin at 10 p.m.
The City released the following:
The Fort Wayne TinCaps will be hosting a baseball game that evening, beginning at 6:05 p.m. Individuals with tickets to that evening’s game will be able to enjoy the fireworks from their seats at the ballpark. If the TinCaps game is not completed by 10 p.m., the fireworks will begin immediately following the conclusion of the game.
This is a new site for the fireworks show. Following guidance from the Indiana Department of Natural Resources, the Indiana Michigan Power Center won’t be used in order to protect a falcon and her unhatched egg that are currently housed there.
NAI Hanning & Bean, the TinCaps, and the City of Fort Wayne are the financial sponsors of this year’s event. The City would like to thank NAI Hanning & Bean and the TinCaps for the generous donations to help ensure the fireworks show is a success.

The City of Fort Wayne announced Thursday that the top of the Harrison Square parking garage attached to Parkview Field will be the location for this year’s Fourth of July fireworks show on Saturday, July 4.
On the 250th anniversary of American Independence, ticketed fans to the Fort Wayne TinCaps’ game against the Dodgers-affiliated Great Lakes Loons can watch the show from the ballpark. First pitch is set for 6:05 p.m. with the fireworks show scheduled to begin at 10 p.m. If the game is not completed by 10 p.m., the show will begin immediately after the game concludes.
The move comes after guidance from the Indiana Department of Natural Resources; the Indiana Michigan Power Center won’t be used to protect a falcon and her unhatched egg currently there.
