Red, White & Boom!

Starting: 6:00 PM, July 4, 2025 | Century II Performing Arts & Convention Center

Wichita’s biggest Independence Day celebration is back with a brand-new downtown view! Join us for Red, White & BOOM! presented by Evergy as we light up the skyline with a spectacular fireworks display launched from the top of the iconic Garvey Center twin towers on Friday, July 4. For the first time ever, Century II’s Kennedy Plaza will be the central hub for this free community celebration.

The Show

The fireworks show will begin around 9:30 p.m., immediately following the Wind Surge’s fireworks at Equity Bank Park. Our show will be choreographed to music—guests can download the Pyrocast App or scan a QR code at the event to sync their experience. Bring your lawn chairs, download the Pyrocast App, and get ready for a night of fireworks, food, and community pride in the heart of Wichita!

Food & Festivities

Starting at 6:00 p.m., food vendors will line Douglas Avenue north of Century II, serving up crowd favorites. Grab dinner, claim a good spot, and enjoy the evening with friends and family.

Balcony Party

For an exclusive experience, Century II will offer a balcony party with a fantastic view of the fireworks. Admission will be charged, and tickets will be sold directly through Century II via Select-A-Seat. Tickets will be available for sale starting June 12 at 10am.
