Navy Pier's fireworks show's explosive grand finale wowed the crowds for the first time since the COVID-19 pandemic began and lit up Chicago's lakefront to kick off the holiday weekend.
Chicago is celebrating the Fourth of July in style. One way the city is celebrating is with a big fireworks show at Navy Pier. Its explosive grand finale wowed the crowds for the first time since the COVID-19 pandemic began and lit up Chicago's lakefront to kick off the holiday weekend.
For Daune and Earl Demus it's all about the lake. The two newlyweds were married along the lake nine months ago. They jumped in the lake right after the ceremony. "We needed some time away just to be with each other, you know? Somewhere secret where work, grandchildren couldn't find us," Earl said. "I love it! I'm excited to see it myself," said Michelle Davis.
CBS 2's Sabrina Franza was told the show had 50% more fireworks than the regular fireworks shows that go off throughout the rest of the summer. Those are every Wednesday and Saturday night. Chicago Polcie say they are prepared to keep bad scenes like one last year from happening this Fourth of July weekend. Last year large crowds gathered in The Loop and threw fireworks at officers and police squad cars along Washington and State streets. More than 60 people were arrested. At one poitn police put a curfew in place and said there was no more room to detain juveniles they arrested.
