LANSING, Ill. (July 1, 2022) – Lansing’s firework display will again take place on July 3 at Lan-Oak Park. Hosted by the Lan-Oak Park District, the gates will open at 7:30 p.m. on Sunday night ahead of a 9:30 start.
The annual display was moved to July 3 for the first time last year, and a fence was placed around the park in an effort to keep crowds manageable and safe.
This year there will be three gates to enter Lan-Oak Park: one on Oakley Avenue, one on Arcadia Avenue, and one on 180th Street.
