DISPLAY BEGINS ABOUT 10 P.M. FROM SCHOOL CAMPUS
Now that the daytime celebration in Downtown Platte City has ended, it’s time to focus on the nighttime show.
The City of Platte City is sponsoring a nighttime fireworks display again this year. Fireworks are scheduled to begin at about 10 p.m.
The fireworks will be set off at the Platte County R-3 School District campus. No seating is available at the school, but designated school parking lots will be available as viewing locations.
Some other popular spots for viewing of the fireworks show in the past have included the Hillcrest Thrift Shop parking area, Platte Valley Park, the Mid-Continent Public Library parking lot, Price Chopper’s parking lot and the YMCA/Community Center parking area.
The city has purchased $19,800 worth of fireworks for this year’s show.
