With perfect weather and a slight breeze, thousands of locals found the perfect vantage point to watch the Hoffman Estates Fireworks Display Sunday night. “It used to be almost a secret location….parking along Central Road near AT&T. ” Says Larry Rowan, long time resident and Realtor in Hoffman Estates. “Every year more people show-up to line Central Road and now the people can be counted by the thousands!” Many cars line Central Road and the new business at the corner of Central and Huntington has a parking lot overlooking the tollway and just under the fireworks area.” Enjoy the Grand Finale video attached.
“It is a picnic setting now, with families bringing chairs and blankets and, of course, all the neighborhood kids.” The crowds are pleasant and very well behaved. “It is fun watching being right under the fireworks….the perfect location!” “I wonder what the travelers on I-90 think as the aerial displays burst right over their heads!”
The fireworks started at 9:30 as the band and singers sang our National Anthom across the tollway at the Festival location behind the village hall and ended at 10:00.
I have seen all of the local fireworks displays and Hoffman Estates ranks right up at the top with Arlington Park and Itasca.
Now you all know the “Secret” location for easy viewing and parking! See you next year!
