Family fun is nearby, with Thompson Memorial Park for live entertainment, children's crafts and face painting. The annual parade begins at 4 pm. Fireworks will be launched along Brimley Road, just north of Milliken Park.

Police have personal fireworks on the beach and elsewhere, based on the turmoil that preceded the Victoria Day fireworks and the expectation that a large number of people will gather this year. I would like to emphasize that it cannot be carried or launched. A park in the city. Don't underestimate this as there are additional police officers and additional cameras everywhere. There are alsoadditional buses from Coxwell and Woodin stations, so leave your car at home.
