Record-tying temperatures weren't enough to keep the crowds away on Monday as thousands gathered to take in the 67th Ford Fireworks show on the Detroit riverfront.

The 2025 Ford Fireworks are 10 p.m. Monday, June 23, 2025. Recommended places to watch the fireworks are Hart Plaza, Spirit Plaza and Belle Isle. All of these places will be open as early as 2 p.m. Monday. Camping chairs, and blankets are the best options for seating ― no tents or canopies will be allowed at any locations.

The two have been a couple for 28 years and have made the Ford Fireworks show a beloved tradition. "It's always been a day for the people," said Moore. Smith nodded in agreement as she ate potato salad and Fritos chips.
