REMINDER: FIREWORKS ARE ILLEGAL IN FOSTER CITY

We want to remind our community that fireworks are illegal and prohibited in Foster City. This includes “safe and sane” fireworks that may have been purchased in nearby communities. While we will not be hosting a fireworks show this year due to construction in Leo Ryan Park, we still have a full day of fun planned and we hope you'll join us! Learn more about the July 4th Celebration.
