The city of Erie is preparing for Wednesday’s annual fireworks show on the bayfront. 

Lights Over Lake Erie starts at 10 p.m. at the foot of Dobbins Landing. Police and fire officials will be there to keep spectators safe. The Coast Guard will ensure boaters are far enough away. 

The city recommends people park downtown and walk or take a free shuttle to the bayfront. 

There will be parking garages open, as well. Go to this website for more information.
