Large crowds are expected at Navy Pier ahead of the venue’s iconic lakefront show.
The only lakefront fireworks display in the area draws thousands to the edge of Lake Michigan for a 15-minute show set to patriotic music.
The venue advised watchers to arrive early, warning gates would close once it reaches crowd capacity, as it has in previous years.
