Fireburst 2022

Fireburst will start at dark.  It is recommended to be in place for viewing by 8:30 p.m.  In the case of incoming inclement weather, the fireworks show may begin early or be rescheduled.

Where to Watch

• Hundreds of boats gather to watch Fireburst.  It is advised you arrive and are in place by 8:30 p.m.  Looking north, if you can see the Kimberling City Bridge, you can see the fireworks.  Immediately following the Fireburst firworks show, Lakeside Resort located to the south of Fireburst will have their own fireworks show.  It’s a fun way to wait out the heavy traffic leaving the area after Fireburst.

Start Time

• It is recommended to be in place by 8:30 p.m.
