The Tacoma Rainiers will be shooting their 3rd of July fireworks show next to Cheney Stadium on Friday, July 3 at 9:45 p.m. Cheney Stadium and its parking lot will be closed to the public due to coronavirus health protocol, but the show will be live-streamed on the team’s Facebook channel. Those in the area are encouraged to practice social distancing if gathering to watch in-person nearby.

“July 3 is traditionally the biggest day of the year for the Rainiers and our fans,” said Tacoma Rainiers President Aaron Artman. “There’s decades of July 3 history at Cheney Stadium. It’s a special day for our fans that has passed through generations. We feel like it’s the perfect time to put on a show for Tacoma and give the city something to be excited about.”

The fireworks show will take place in the parking lot adjacent to Clay Huntington Way. The live stream on the Rainiers Facebook channel will show the display using drone shots and a variety of camera angles.
