Fireworks Planned For Downtown Buckhannon, July 2nd!

June 17, 2021, BUCKHANNON, WV:  Buckhannon Mayor Robbie Skinner announced that the Fireworks Celebration is planned, in conjunction with Create Buckhannon’s Festival Fridays Event, for Friday, July 2, 2021!  The Mayor has been in contact with Council Member Pam Bucklew, who chairs these types of special events for the City, and Amberle Jenkins, the City’s Finance Director, to make sure that this year’s event goes off without a hitch. 

Mayor Skinner has also directed the City to work with Create Buckhannon, the organizers of Festival Fridays, who will be presenting the Top 40 & Variety Group Stonestreet as the headliners in Jawbone Park for the evening festivities that will include the popular Farmers Market and a wide array of local vendors.

The public is invited to attend this free event and enjoy all that Festival Fridays has to offer and we encourage attendees to make their way up onto Main Street at dusk to have a great view of the fireworks display that will be staged behind Walgreens, Premier Bank, and Citizens Bank of WV.  Great viewing will be available from many areas of the downtown, particularly around the Upshur County Courthouse, Community Bank, Walgreens, CVS, etc.
