SOUTHFIELD, Mich. (FOX 2) - The Fourth of July is here. Grilling, pools, and fireworks on a long, perfect weekend.
This weekend is going to be a perfect chance to get outside and forget about the yard work for a few hours and enjoy time with the family.
Starting Thursday night, you can see fireworks at a few different places in Metro Detroit. We're compiling a list of weekend Fourth of July fireworks shows. If there's some that we missed, send them our way!
Many fireworks shows have already been done but these are the ones to see this holiday weekend.
Oakland County
Holly:
The Village of Holly is hosting its fireworks show on July 3.
The Village of Holly's fireworks show starts at 10p at Lakeside Memorial Park. You do have to pay to park at Lakeside Park Parking Lot and East Rd. Cemetery Parking – which will cost you just $5 – and there will be no on-street parking in the area of the fireworks.
No alcohol, no dogs, and no personal use fireworks, like sparklers.
Sylvan Lake:
Also on Thursday night is the Sylvan Lake Fireworks show at the Oakland County Boat Club.
The annual show is shot from a barge int he middle of the lake. Parking, however is already sold out at the Community Center. There's viewing available at Ferndale Park, just north of the boat club.
There is no parking allowed on the street, which has been the rule for years. Parking is only allowed in approved gravel or paved parking areas.
Clawson:
One of the biggest shows of the year is on the holiday in the city of Clawson.
The show will fire off at dusk from Clawson City Park and wraps up a day of fun that includes the Firecracker Mile run, Independence Day parade, food trucks, and more.
You can park anywhere in the area – as long is it is NOT designated as a no-parking zone.

The fireworks will start Friday, July 4, at 10:05 p.m. over the golf course.
