Fireworks, Music, and Beautiful Lakefront Views at Summerfest

in #fireworks7 years ago (edited)

During Summerfest, the world's largest music festival, there are 3 different days you can watch incredible firework displays sitting along beautiful Lake Michigan! Milwaukee's weather can be harsh for most of the year but the summer months in this city are just incredible! This is just one of my favorite parts of this time of year in Milwaukee and at Summerfest!

The U.S. Bank Fireowrks, 3rd of July

is the largest display of fireworks in Milwaukee, on July 3 each year. They shell out some big time money each I missed this years third on the lakefront but I was down there for the fourth. So before I share my 4th of July experience let me share with you some pictures and sources that really show the majesty of Milwaukee lakefront at this time of year

While looking for a some pictures and sources I stumbled upon this incredible interactive 360 VR experience I was going to add a few more but this is much better than anyother pictures I could add.

Before the firework show in the video above finished Third Eye Blind started playing directly behind me. I'm way more interested in music over fireworks! In case your here for the music over fireworks. Summerfest at Night

The Big Gig's Big Bang Fireworks

Summerfest's first night, each year, starts off with a bang, literally! The Big Gig's Big Bang is the 2nd most impressive firework show each year in Milwaukee! It usually takes place around June 28th, it all depends on which day they decided to start Summerfest each particular year!

If only I was standing in the same spot I took my pictures and video when the Big Gig's Big Bang went off! I was still in Las Vegas unfortunately

if your timing is right this is where you see the fireworks in the 2nd picture from the top of this post

I hope you enjoyed the post and checked out that 360 vr link I posted just above the 4th of july header! That was by far the coolest and most interesting thing I found while searching for materials to help me truly show you what I think of when I think of fireworks at Summerfest, and not way under sell it with a few mediocre pictures I took using my droid turbo 2.
