Colorado Rapids Reschedule 4th of July Fireworks for This Weekend

Jul 6, 2023, 2:55 PM

One of the biggest and most anticipated 4th of July fireworks shows in Denver couldn’t happen on the 4th this year because Mother Nature had different plans, but it doesn’t mean it won’t happen at all…

The Colorado Rapids fireworks show was postponed Tuesday due to inclement weather, but the show will be held after the Rapids’ match Saturday (July 8th) at Dick’s Sporting Goods Park. That match against FC Dallas is set to kick off at 7:30 p.m.

“Members of the public who would like to enjoy the fireworks show without attending the match are welcome to watch from the lots surrounding DICK’S Sporting Goods Park, which offer free parking,” the team said in a news release. “However, visitors must have a July 8th game ticket to be granted entrance into the stadium.”

The postponed 4th of July match versus the Portland Timbers will resume at a later date, which is yet to be announced. Tickets purchased for July 4 will be honored for the game against the Timbers on that to-be-announced rescheduled date. The team said they will contact July 4 ticketholders with additional information.
