4th of July fireworks from the Willamette river in Portland

Have any of my fellow Taco owners with boats done the fireworks from the water viewing ?

If so, where do you tie up, what time do you need to get there and do you need an anchor?

 

I would be very very surprise if they do fireworks this year.... not saying it’s right just saying

 

They usually launch the fireworks from a barge in front of the Blues Festival that takes place on the waterfront in front of the Marriot... I'm sure everything is canceled this year or will be but if it goes down... anywhere near the Marriot will be front and center!

 

The Blues festival has been canceled

 

Go light your own fireworks from the bridge footings.

Maybe we can have flashbangs instead, those are pretty festive, right?

 

Didn’t Portland already cancel 4th of July festivities months ago? Like right at the beginning of the pandemic shutdowns.

 

My understanding was that that the blues festival and brew festivals and park gatherings were canceled but the fireworks were still happening? Its possible i have outdated info.

 

pretty sure KB my squash those plans. I’ll look around though

 

here’s some info straight from Portland fire
