Cardinals, Great Southern Bank Community Fireworks Series begins July 18

SPRINGFIELD, Mo. -- Fireworks are officially returning to downtown Springfield! The Springfield Cardinals are excited to partner with Great Southern Bank for the Great Southern Bank Free Community Fireworks Series spread out through July, August and September. The first show in the Great Southern Bank Free Community Fireworks Series will begin this Saturday, July 18 at 9:30 p.m.

The Great Southern Bank Free Community Fireworks Series is set to deliver six spectacular fireworks shows by AM Pyrotechnics and will fire off in the same area as they would during Cardinals games. Fans can park in the downtown area to watch the shows. Although the ballpark will not be open, fans can #FlyTogether to enjoy the full Music and Fireworks Experience by tuning their car radios or smartphone apps to any of the following Midwest Family Broadcasting Stations to hear the accompanying soundtrack: 104.7 The Cave, 92.9 The Beat, 105.1 The Bull or Q102.1.

“We are extremely grateful to Great Southern Bank for partnering with the Cardinals to bring summer fireworks back to downtown Springfield,” Cardinals Vice President & General Manager Dan Reiter said. “Cardinals Baseball has defined the downtown summer scene for 15 years, and the fireworks have been a big part of the family-first sports culture. Even in a summer without Springfield Cardinals baseball, we are thankful Great Southern Bank was able to help bring back fireworks shows in a way that allows our community to safely enjoy the experience while remaining socially distanced.”

We will announce future dates for the Great Southern Bank Free Community Fireworks Series one at a time. All future shows will continue to be brought to life by a radio soundtrack thanks to Midwest Family Broadcasting.
