Big Bang on the Bay

Get ready for an unforgettable celebration as Big Bang on the Bay returns on July 3, 2026! Join us at Boathouse on the Bay for an evening of spectacular fireworks that will light up Alamitos Bay, Naples Island, and the Peninsula in Long Beach.

Block party ticket proceeds benefit local charities.

Since its inception, Big Bang on the Bay has contributed over $1,000,000 to local non-profits, focusing on organizations that benefit Long Beach's youth. This year, the spotlight shines on The Boys & Girls Club of Long Beach as the main beneficiary while also supporting organizations like the Action Sports Kids Foundation, Children Today, Los Altos YMCA, and the Autism Partnership Foundation.

The event features early evening entertainment, including aircraft flyovers, paragliding displays, a Coast Guard Dolphin Search and Rescue demonstration, and live music with a special DJ. The event concludes with a 30-minute fireworks display at 8:30 p.m.
