For the past 50 years, Niagara Falls, Ontario has been showcasing its phenomenal firework shows as the Friday night lights. Today, the world famous Falls fireworks have earned the name of ‘Canada’s longest-running fireworks series’ with 82 consecutive days of jaw-dropping fireworks spectacles. Of course, there are key locations all throughout the Niagara Parks and along the Niagara Parkway to be AH-mazed by the colourful sparks, but the best and true way to see, hear, and experience the roar of the Falls and crackling of the sparks is aboard our Falls Fireworks Cruise.
