Chicago has canceled their July 3rd fireworks display in Grant Park and
replaced it with three smaller shows. The displays will take place on the
Navy Pier and location on both the south side and north side. Mayor's Office
of Special Events believes that the smaller displays will not only reduce
cost, but it will give people the option to view fireworks in locations
closer to their homes and avoid large crowds. Each specific location will
feature a special event such as a water show or a concert. The firework
displays will begin at 9pm.
