Don’t miss Delaware’s best fireworks show! This members-only event is a spectacular evening of family fun held two Fridays every Summer.

This year, Hagley's Fireworks Shows will be held on Saturday, June 15, and Friday, June 21, 2024. Rain dates are the following Saturdays and Sundays.

The theme is Fireworks at Hagley: Women Mean Business!

Over the decades, Hagley has accumulated archives and artifacts documenting women’s contributions to the American economy. These resources have been used in books and conference papers, films and documentaries, exhibitions, and other creative projects. Tonight, we celebrate the contributions that women have made throughout history to the business of business. Join us as we explore women in enterprise through pyrotechnics and music.

Because of the level of security of Hagley's - and Hagley's neighbors' - airspace, drones will not be part of Hagley's 2024 fireworks program.
