As part of its Canada Day celebrations, the City of Peterborough is planning a fireworks display over Little Lake for Saturday, July 1st.
The fireworks display will begin at 9:30 p.m. following the first Peterborough Musicfest free-admission concert of the season at Del Crary Park featuring Natalie MacMaster and Donnell Leahy.
There will be a temporary road closure on Crescent Street in the vicinity of the t-wharf before and during the fireworks display. Access for local traffic will be maintained.
Residents are reminded to follow all on-street parking regulations that may be in place in the area, including calendar parking where applicable.
Earlier in the day, there will be Canada Day festivities at Confederation Park from 10 a.m. to 12 p.m., including face painting and henna tattoos, a birthday cake donated by Morello’s Your Independent Grocer, a children’s bicycle contest, and music by the Peterborough Pop Ensemble, followed by the Canada Day parade departing City Hall at noon and travelling south down George Street to Morrow Park.
