Canada's Wonderland Hosts its Biggest Fireworks Summer Ever

From a record number of fireworks shows to KidZfest, Celebration Canada, brand-new live entertainment and our new Membership program, here's everything waiting for you this summer.

Fireworks at Canada's Wonderland

With a record-breaking fireworks lineup, all-new entertainment, returning family favourites and a new flexible Membership program, there's never been a better time to experience summer at Canada's Wonderland.

A Record Number of Fireworks Nights

If summer at Canada's Wonderland had a signature tradition, it would be our fireworks. And this year, we're making that tradition bigger than ever.

For the first time, we're hosting a record seven fireworks spectaculars throughout the summer – including five nights in July alone, with four brand-new Saturday evening shows. That means more opportunities to end your day with more than 6,000 colourful fireworks soaring over the park, perfectly choreographed to an original soundtrack you can only experience here.

The excitement doesn't stop there. New fire divers and lively street performers help turn every fireworks night into an unforgettable celebration.

  • NEW: July 4
  • NEW: July 11
  • NEW: July 18

A Week-Long Celebration for Canada

From July 1–5, Celebration Canada, sponsored by Neutrogena, brings the park to life with live music, family activities, incredible entertainment and delicious Canadian-inspired eats. Catch inspiring performances by the Smoke Trail Singers on Canada Day before tasting everything from poutine and peameal bacon sliders to butter tarts.
