Fireworks shows are being canceled across Colorado. Some are citing wildfires as a reason for canceling, while others cite staffing shortages and COVID-19.
On Thursday, Elitch Gardens was added to the list of canceled fireworks shows.
In a statement, Elitch Gardens said:
“We sincerely value your support and patronage of Elitch Gardens. Due to the Park’s modified summertime operating hours made necessary by the area’s reduced available workforce, we must cancel the planned 4th of July fireworks show this season. The Park will still open at 10:30 am for a full day of theme and water park fun for our guests to enjoy the 4th with their family and friends.”
