Dexter, Missouri - The City of Dexter's annual Fourth of July Fireworks Display is slated for Sunday, July 4, 2021 at dusk (around 9:00 p.m.) at East City Park.  Sunset is 8:22 p.m. on July 4th for Dexter.

In case of rain on Sunday, the fireworks show will be held on Monday, July 5, 2021. The city of Dexter Fire Chief, Don Seymore, will let the ShowMe Times know if there is a cancellation or change and will be announced on Facebook and Twitter.

The event is free and open to public.

"It will be in the same spot as last year.  The soccer fields and baseball/softball fields will be roped off, but there is plenty of parking at the fairgrounds, south of the ball fields, at the aquatic center, and around the levee," commented Trevor Pulley, Dexter City Administrator. "I hope everyone has a safe Independence Day and enjoys the annual fireworks show."

Just a reminder.........The city ordinance prohibits the shooting of fireworks inside the city limits however that will be waived on Sunday, July 4th to allow residents a chance to celebrate the holiday. 

Fireworks are also allowed at the park prior to and after the official city display. 

If rain cancels the fireworks display on the 4th residents will be able to shoot fireworks on the 5th, but only if cancelled!!!
