Seaworld Fireworks Schedule

Fireworks display

Once nightly summer fireworks shows at SeaWorld took a hiatus, but public demand brought them back. Then in 2020 COVID-19 pandemic closed the park, and the fireworks crew were not able to work from home. Then SeaWorld reopened. And the fireworks came back.

Despite protest, SeaWorld is permitted to launch up to 150 fireworks shows a year.

Now we await the 2024 fireworks schedule, including the Fourth of July show.
