By Katerina Gasset

Where Can I See 4th of July Firework Shows in Utah County?

1. Thanksgiving Point Fireworks

The event will be held at the Electric Park in Lehi, and the gates open at 4 p.m. You’ll want to get there early to enjoy all the pre-fireworks festivities. 

There’s going to be a lot going on. The park will be filled with delectable food trucks like Nachos Live, District Thai, Kona Ice, South of the Border Tacos, Fatty Tuna, Neat Frites, and Corndog Commanders. 

Not to mention, Thanksgiving Point will have their own concession team with all kinds of tasty treats and snacks. You won’t go hungry! 

As if the food wasn’t enough, the pre-fireworks festivities will have you grooving to the tunes of 93.3 The Bull. They’ll be giving away some pretty sweet prizes too. So, make sure you tune in and keep your eyes open. 

But the real highlight of the evening is, of course, the synchronized fireworks show. Fireworks give you all the feels. This show is going to be 20–30 minutes or pure magic. The colors, the lights, the music – it’s going to be a night to remember. 

But the festivities don’t end there. This year, two dinosaurs from Dinosaur Island will also be making an appearance. You’ll have the opportunity to meet them up close and even snap a selfie or two. Plus, knowledgeable educators will be on site to tell you about these fascinating creatures and ancient life. 

Just remember, for your safety and the safety of others, personal fireworks and grills are not allowed. But don’t worry, there will be enough excitement to keep you entertained all evening long. 

Admission if FREE, so there’s really no excuse not to head over to Electric Park in Lehi and joining the festivities.

About the author of Move to Provo Utah Website 

Katerina Gasset

When I moved here I was blessed to have my daughter to help with different things you need to know when you move to a new place. I had background from living here before but things have changed a lot too since the '80s. 

We were able to get all the good places to eat down fast - since she knows all that and we have a lot of the same likes in food. But things like how to turn on my electricity or what power company services my home... well... I was at a total loss! 

I know that other people moving to Provo don't always have family here to guide and help them. And most people don't have a real estate agent who gives them a welcome package on all the important numbers and places they need to know. 

My goal is for this website to be your go to resource for everything you need to know before, during, and after you move here to Provo, Utah. I want you to have the best experience and love living here as much as I do
