BOOM IS BACK!
July 4, 2022 | PEORIA & EAST PEORIA RIVERFRONT
UnityPoint Health Red White and Boom brought home by Adam Merrick Real Estate will return on the Fourth of July for the first time since 2019 and we want you to join us!
Red White & BOOM! is the Peoria area’s largest event, attracting an estimated 200,000 people on the Peoria and East Peoria riverfronts. This massive fireworks display ranks among the top 2% in the nation.
At the rate of over 2,000 shells per minute, the show is launched from a dual barge in the middle of the Illinois River with the fireworks explosions choreographed to music on seven Midwest Communications radio stations.
This year will be the 34th presentation of the event, and this year will have a special emphasis on military and first responders.
UnityPoint Health Red White and Boom brought home by Adam Merrick Real Estate is open to everyone and is free of charge. We will add more details as we get closer to the event.
Midwest Communications and its seven radio stations organize the event in conjunction with the Peoria Park District. It is supported with the help of several of our community-focused sponsors, volunteers and local organizations.
