After the Air Show in downtown New Bern the city will stage a show stopping pyrotechnic show over the Neuse River. We are grateful to the sponsors of this years fireworks display. Keep in mind that the public viewing areas get extremely crowded, so arrive early (well before 9 pm if you want a decent spot) and bring chairs or a blanket to spread out and whatever other supplies you need to enjoy the wait (water, food, iPods, etc.).
